Helping you stay safe, happy and healthy in your own home.
LINK helps you to live well and live independently in your own home by supporting what you can do yourself, with advice and phone support for the harder stuff.
Our support call service gives you somewhere to turn when you need some help. Our trained social work and support staff form a team that will listen, and then do what we can to help. We can’t fix everything, but were on your side. We’re here to help.
LINK is NOT an emergency, healthcare or critical care service. If you need URGENT help – or someone is unwell or in danger please call:

or

Our support call staff will provide a listening ear and advice where we can.
We understand that staying safe, happy and healthy in your own home is made possible by looking after the little things as well as the big things. We’ll do our best to make sure little things are addressed while they are little, and aren’t allowed to become bigger problems.
We are here to help before things become emergencies, and will provide ongoing support in all sorts of ways whilst the specialists deal with specialist and emerging situations.
Call us for support with
- Ideas on services that will help you or your loved one stay safe, happen and healthy in their own home

We fit our service to meet our clients’ needs. We address the areas where you most need help, and let you keep your independence with the items you like to keep doing yourself.
We’ll do what we can to identify services, advice, referrals or recommendations to help you face the issues you are facing. We can’t solve everything, but will do what we can. Sometimes a listening ear, and knowledge that you are not facing this alone is a good start.
LINK is here to help.
