Kerala Link is a very small charity organisation, trying to make a big difference to the lives of a few groups of disadvantaged people in South India. It is fully registered by the Charity Commission in the UK (Registered Charity No. 1096687) and we have recently succeeded in registering a branch office in Kerala.
Kerala Link is run by a small team of dedicated trustees and other volunteers from the UK and by our wonderful Volunteer Coordinator, Kerala Link's only employee, in India.
Caroline, the founder-trustee, together with her family, has been living in Kerala for the past three years, overseeing the work of the charity there.
Other trustees visit Kerala when they can.

We have excellent relationships with our partner institutions and can readily adapt our programmes to suit their changing needs.
Kerala Link has two main aims:
