Welcome back to LinkAge Let's Talk! In episode three we meet volunteer and 'Googler' Christina Biernat to discuss the time she gives to LinkAge Plus. She tells us about 'walk-and-talk-tuesdays', generously gives advice on how to volunteer and discusses wellbeing in general. We also have our first return guest - Pat McCathy! An avid walker, she tells about what she gains from this activity and how she continues to give in her own life.
