Christmas
Bringing the gift of friendship
For many, Christmas Day is a day for family, for getting together and celebrating with loved ones. Sadly, however, for some people without family or close friends, it is the loneliest day of the year. A time when isolation, loss and grief are even more keenly felt.
For the past 12 years, through our programme of activities and our Christmas Day event, we’ve brought joy and companionship to those who would otherwise be spending Christmas on their own.
“I’m so grateful to the Link for the care and kindness during a difficult, lonely time in my life. I am truly amazed by what you do. Thank you.”
