Leisure Link
A programme of fun social events based in the Ross-on-Wye area, using local venues – pubs, village halls and community centers. We offer a range of activities to suit everyone’s interests. These events are planned by those that attend, so any new ideas are always welcome.
The programme was originally set up to integrate people with learning disabilities into the community, however many others for a variety of reasons, who also find it difficult to access other social networks, enjoy the friendly, welcoming atmosphere of Leisure Link.
We have received a lot of support from local volunteers who provide activities adding to the range of people at the events. If you have a skill or talent and would like to be a part of Leisure Link, or you are looking to get out and meet new people, get in touch and find out more!
