Community Links and Catch22 have described the merger which took place today (1 February) as the “next step” for both organisations which have shared back office and corporate services since early 2017 when Community Links joined the Catch22 Group. 

Community Links, which is supported by a team of 100 staff and volunteers, runs a range of programmes and services across youth, employment, health, advice and policy in Newham. It will continue to do so after the merger.

Catch22 is a not-for-profit business with a social mission, building resilience and aspiration in people and communities for over 200 years.
