CHARITIES WE SUPPORT
Proudly supporting local and national charities
At Link, we recognise the importance of doing our part to support charities and good causes which is why we have partnered with several different charities since the company was founded in 1990.
Building these relationships connects our employees directly to the people who need help, through fundraising or the numerous community projects we support. Our fundraising team organise various events through the year to raise money & awareness and spread joy throughout our community. Keep up to date with our latest fundraising news by following us on social media!

Armed Forces Covenant
We at Link recognise the value serving personnel, reservists, veterans and military families bring to our business and to our country. We pledge to uphold the principles of the Armed Forces Covenant, by:
- promoting the fact that we are an Armed Forces-friendly organisation, to our staff, customers, suppliers, contractors and wider public.
- supporting the employment of veterans, recognising military skills and qualifications in our recruitment and selection process; working with the Career Transition Partnership (CTP) to support the employment of Service leavers.
We will publicise these commitments through our literature and/or on our website, setting out how we will seek to honour them and inviting feedback from the Service community and our customers on how we are doing. Keep your eyes peeled for more information! #forourforces #teamlink
