Charity Link works throughout Leicester, Leicestershire, Rutland and Northamptonshire to support individuals and families facing financial hardship and crisis.

Charity Link works in a unique way (untapping funds from charitable trusts around the UK) which means that for every £10 donated the charity can provide £50 of essential items, including food, clothing, beds, cookers and mobility equipment. These essential items, which many of us are lucky enough to take for-granted, help to restore dignity, improve quality of life and enable people to fulfil their potential, no matter what crisis, illness, disability or difficulty they may be facing.

Charity Link helps people of all ages, genders, ethnicities and backgrounds, including frail elderly people, people with mental health issues, those facing chronic illness or disability, carers, the victims of domestic violence, people affected by redundancy, family breakdown or bereavement and working families struggling to make ends meet.
