What could be better than sitting around a table with friends old and new, eating delicious homegrown food while raising some money so that others can do the same?! We are so grateful to Di for her phenomenal fundraising, incredible cooking skills and all while celebrating friendship at the same time. WIN WIN 🥇

Wow, Team Link are half way to their fundraising target for the Wokingham Lions Club Swimathon! 🙌

Can you help us get closer to our goal? We'd love to raise more than last year!

With Remember A Charity Week just around the corner (7-13 September), we're delighted to share that we now have new leaflets explaining how you can leave a gift in your Will to The Link and the lasting legacy of friendship that your gift could create.

A special thank you to Blandy & Blandy Solicitors for kindly sponsoring the leaflets and helping us raise awareness of this important way of supporting older people in our community.

Thank you to Pargiter Trust, supported by Berkshire Community Foundation, for their generous grant towards our Activity Programme.

☕ Come along to Link Thursdays - our weekly community cafe, open to everyone.

One person who joins every week is John - it's part of his weekly routine, lending a hand, joining in and catching up over a cuppa.

"Every time I come in, there's people around me... we all chat."

Whether you're after new friends, a natter, or just a cup of tea in good company, there's a seat waiting for you.

With the weather rather wet today, it feels appropriate to mention the Wokinghan Swimathon! 💦🌊

Here are 3 of our amazing Team Link swimmers - Louise, Jayne and Dawn, who all work for Tesco Wokingham!

Please consider sponsoring Team Link to complete their epic relay - they have been practicing their lengths this week ready for the big day on Sunday 20th September! 💪

A big thank you again to Hallmark Alexandra Grange Luxury Care Home for making the day possible.

And to Soph - Thank You for the Music! Sing for your Self
