LINK Good Neighbours
What LINK do
LINK Good Neighbours work to reduce isolation and loneliness in older (over 50s) or isolated people and adults with long term health conditions and disabilities. We aim to do this by building networks of support to improve people’s quality of life and sense of wellbeing.
Our current activities include an exercise class, arts and crafts session, trips out throughout the year and host various activities during the week. These include a lunch club, an, a computer class and a peer-support group focusing on mental health and wellbeing facilitated by a former NHS mental health nurse with years of experience.
All sessions are run on a drop-in basis and no booking is required, so if you are interested please feel free to come along and try out a session. Please feel free to enquire about any more details you’d wish to know.

As well as the befriending service, LINK also run a range sessions and monthly coach trips to visit sites of interest across the region.
LINK Together - 11:00am till 2:00pm
As we grow older there are a number of reasons such as mobility problems, mental and physical health; lack of motivation, anxiety and depression why we can become more socially isolated. Don't let social isolation damage your mental and physical health; nearly half of over 55's suffer from anxiety and depression. Dont become one of them.

LINK Art Activities - 1:00pm till 3:00pm
Some people seem to be put off getting involved in art activities because they think they have to be experts. Well most of us coming to the art activities group at Trinity House have not been involved in art since we left school and nobody has ever accused us of being experts. We attend because we enjoy the company and enjoy having a go at art. What's more it's a fact that having a go at being creative helps us combat stress and improves out resistance to illness.
Every Wednesday - 1:00pm till 3:00pm
