Wendy and Nigel were delighted to receive a hamper from the Wokingham Link Visiting Scheme today! It was to thank them for the amazing work they do each Wednesday with the support of volunteers to provide lunch and companionship. When they started The Well at Kings Church Wokingham nearly four years ago, they could never imagine that some weeks they'd feed over 80 people! A massive thank you for everything you do πŸ‘πŸ˜πŸ₯£
