Story
Together Co is Brightons loneliness charity that creates connections to change lives. We do this through our befriending, social prescribing and volunteering services across Brighton, Hove and beyond, and by sharing our ideas and expertise nationally.
Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, weve seen a massive increase in demand for our services, and have had to scale up quickly throughout 2020. Our befriending service alone saw a 750% increase in demand compared to the same time period in 2019.
Our emergency campaign will help to fund this frontline work. Our telephone based support has been hugely successful throughout the year, and we want to continue to offer further access to our services for those who are extremely isolated.
THANK YOU FOR DONATING AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT.
