Dear community,


As the president of the Wokingham Catenians, I’ve had the privilege of witnessing firsthand the incredible impact of The Link Visiting Scheme. Let me tell you why this charity holds a special place in my heart—and why I’m reaching out to you today.
What Is The Link Visiting Scheme?

Imagine a world where no one feels alone. Where a friendly voice on the other end of the phone or a warm visit can brighten someone’s day. That’s precisely what The Link Visiting Scheme does. Our dedicated volunteers befriend local individuals—often our cherished elders—who may be feeling isolated or lonely. It’s more than just a chat; it’s a lifeline.

Why Donate?
  1. Bridging the Gap: During the lockdown, when the world seemed to shrink, The Link Visiting Scheme stepped up. Our volunteers became lifelines for those who couldn’t leave their homes. Now, as life resumes, the need remains. Your donation bridges the gap between loneliness and connection.
  2. Social Well-Being: Loneliness isn’t just an emotional ache; it affects physical health too. By supporting this charity, you’re investing in the well-being of our community. Together, we combat isolation, one conversation at a time.
  3. Group Activities: The Link Visiting Scheme doesn’t stop at phone calls. We organize social group activities—laughter-filled gatherings, outings, and shared moments. Your contribution fuels these heartwarming events.
How Can You Help?
  • Donate: Every pound counts. Your generosity directly impacts lives.
  • Spread the Word: Share our cause with friends, family, and colleagues. Let’s create a ripple effect of compassion.
Thank you for being part of something truly meaningful.

Warm regards,
Richard Roberts, President Wokingham Catenians
