Emergency funding is critical in helping us to train up new volunteers to meet a huge increase in demand for our services. Donating just £10 could pay to train a COVID-19 volunteer to support a vulnerable person in our city of Brighton & Hove.

Story

Since Covid, Coops has been volunteering for Brighton-based charity, Together Co. This means he's buddyed up with someone who might otherwise feel lonely and isolated, sharing frequent phone calls and developing a friendship. This kind of regular contact makes such a difference to people in normal circumstances, let alone when the world has been shut down. So now more than ever, this lovely local charity needs your support. 

We will be running the Brighton Half (again) but this time in summer...it's going to be HOT HOT HOT - and not in a sexy way. Please sponsor us if you can :) xxx

Here's what Together Co have to say about their work:

Together Co support some of the most isolated people in the city. As the coronavirus crisis hits, it's vital we scale up quickly and responsibly as demand for services increases.

Not only must we support vulnerable people to maintain social contact and access to essentials, but critically to ensure people get the right information on how to stay safe.

Together Co's emergency campaign will help to fund this frontline work, to offer more phone based social support, and access to supplies, to people who are extremely isolated due to health conditions and/or older age in Brighton and Hove.

THANK YOU
