UPDATE: TeamLink has completed the Wokingham Walk for Friendship!
We're raising funds to enable us to recruit, train and support new volunteers who will transform someone's life with friendship!
“My volunteer is a lifeline; her visits are the highlight of my week.”
Feelings of loneliness for some older people can be overwhelming. Feeling that you are unwanted, unnoticed and undervalued can put a huge strain on your mental and physical health. Nearly 20% of older people see family and friends less than once a week and for 11% it's less than once a month. With your support we can reach more older people in our community who are desperate to meet a friend.
