Help especially if somebody is in need of support (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

befriend

(Other definitions for befriend that I've seen before include "Act as pal to, help out" , "Finer bed (anag.)" , "Take on as a pal" , "Become a companion to" , "Side with" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
