The programme brings together the volunteers’ local knowledge and the Connect to Surrey Support Directory to:
- link residents to the right local support services, community groups and wellbeing resources
- make sure no one is left without support
The overall aim is to make it easier for people to get help, stay connected and feel part of their community.
