Robert Becomes Patron of Volunteer Link Up

Volunteer Link Up, run by a team of volunteers, is the Volunteer Centre for West Oxfordshire, linking people who have time to spare with opportunities to help local residents and charitable organisations that need their services.

They have been serving the people of West Oxfordshire since 1983 through their in-house projects: transport, befriending and practical tasks for which they recruit volunteers.  Robert, who has long supported the work of Volunteer Link Up, recently became a Patron of the group.

Robert said: "in their 35th anniversary year, I am delighted to become a Vice-Patron of this wonderful local charitable organisation, who feature in my annual Volunteering Week celebration of all that these wonderful community groups bring to our towns and villages. It was great to meet Councillor Steve Good today to discuss their latest projects."
