Delphinium is a flexible and confidential telephone-based practical support and companionship service brought to you by Omega.

A trusted and experienced Delphinium Companion will complete a free complementary consultation to begin getting to know you, and gain a good understanding of your personal situation and how we can help.

Devoting at least an hour each week (or longer, if needed), your Delphinium Companion can offer a friendly, listening ear and emotional support. Delphinium can also help to facilitate and maintain important connections, and offers an efficient research service to find extra sources of help, such as appropriate professionals or community groups.

Delphinium is a pay-as-you-go, not-for-profit service which can supplement any existing help that you receive, and is tailored to support your needs and well-being. Some of the benefits of Delphinium:

- Companionship
- Strict confidentiality
- Flexibility
- Affordable pay-as-you-go rates
- Extra non-clinical support

Omega is an end of life charity working hard to raise standards in end of life care by supporting caregivers looking after someone with a terminal illness, people who are themselves end of life, and those who have been bereaved. We prioritise those aged over 75 and still caring or bereaved.
