The Link is a Community Interest Company or a CIC for short, which means we are motivated by making a positive change rather than making money. We believe
that nobody should have to face emotional distress alone, so we provide a variety of therapeutic services, activities, training and events to support children, young people and families who are
facing challenges in relation to mental health.
The Link was established in 2010 when our Founder and inspiring Managing Director, Tina Jackson identified that there wasn't enough help for children and
young people when it came to mental health, there wasn't anything to help when issues were just starting only when they reached crisis point, so she established The Link!
Our mission is to reduce the number of children and young people facing mental health issues and emotional distress by providing an holistic approach and bespoke
interventions when needed.
