In the last few years of his life, dad began working for Linking Lives - a charity based in Eastbourne -and it brought him happiness and purpose after the death of my mum. 

As a tribute to him we would like to offer you the chance to support Linking Lives by donating here.

the work of Linking Lives:

Our primary focus is on working with local churches and Christian organisations in addressing loneliness. We do this through passing on our tried and tested approaches of befriending in ways that complement existing local work.
For many years, there has been concern about the negative impact that loneliness has on people of all ages. Churches are in an ideal position to respond to this, and many have been doing so for many years. We have been working on a national level since 2012 and we have identified effective responses and practical tools which can be used in all areas.
Our long term goal is to establish befriending schemes in every county of the UK which impact the lives particularly of older people.

Thank you for your kindness.

Jen and Kate
