Proud that Community Links contributed to From Disparity to Fairness: Legal Access in Newham, highlighting the lack of housing & immigration advice in the borough. We're appointing a new Housing Solicitor to lead our free advice service, needed now more than ever

We are delighted that @lynbrownmp celebrated the hard work and creativity of our @Comm_Links Links Media College students in Parliament yesterday.

[Community Links @Comm_Links]

Wonderful to see our local MP speaking on this important topic and amplifying the voice of our young people in the halls of power. Lyn is a wonderful advocate, ensuring young people's voice is part of the debate! @Catch22

A pleasure to host HRH The Princess Royal, at Community Links, where she saw some of Catch22’s Commissioned Rehabilitative Services. We’re hugely grateful she opened our new wellbeing room, providing a valuable holistic space to support the wellbeing of staff.
