About Us

 

At Interlink Rhondda Cynon Taf, we are a members-led charity. We’re focused on creating connected, resourceful and sustainable communities where people develop trust, respect and understanding, have good health, and access the resources they need. By encouraging people and communities to recognise and work with the assets the community already has – such as its people, buildings and land – communities can take action on what really matters.
