Link Up London

It all began in Battersea in 2016, expanding throughout Wandsworth and then into Lambeth in the summer of 2018. As a result of the Covid-19 pandemic our service has since moved online and opened up to organisations across all boroughs of London. We aim to connect people with professional skills to local Social Good Organisations (these include Charities, Social Enterprises, and Community Groups) where they live and/or work on short-term, structured, meaningful projects aimed to help the organisations do their work better and have a greater impact. Our approach is to support committed people and organisations to work together to bring about local level change throughout London. Our bespoke projects are designed to fit around modern, busy lives so each match is shaped with the needs of the organisation and the Skilled Volunteer's preferences in mind, to ensure that each side gets the most out of their experience. All projects can also be completed remotely or in-person if it's more convenient.
