I've worked at Together Co for 8 years, and the team of 25 staff and 400 volunteers do amazing, life-changing things. Times are hard and lonely for a lot of people but we're reaching more folk than ever - we've seen a 70% increase in demand for befriending in the last 4 years for example.

I'm running with a team of 15 others, raising funds to help meet that demand. Thank you for reading this far and I hope you can donate xxx

Here's our official info: More people than ever before are lonely or social isolated. You can change that. Loneliness and social isolation are deadly. A lack of social connections is as harmful to our health as smoking 15 cigarettes a day (Holt-Lunstad, 2015). We create life-changing and life-saving connections – but we can only do so with your support.
