How We are Celebrating National Volunteers' Week

This week is Volunteers' Week!

This week is National Volunteers' Week 2023 and at Age Cymru Dyfed, we couldn't help Dyfed love later life without the support and dedication of our volunteers. And we are always keen to enrol more help, so that we can conitnue to deliver our projects across West Wales.

To kick off Volunteers' Week at Age Cymru Dyfed, there's a chance to meet the volunteering team on Thursday 1 June. It's an open house, so come along and find out how you can support people aged 50+ in your local community, from 10am at The Garden Centre, Myrtle Hill, Pensarn, Carmarthen SA31 2NG.

Volunteeering Manager at Age Cymru Dyfed Lynne Meredith said; 

"We look forward to meeting you and helping you discover the many benefits of volunteering for our team. Many people think volunteering is not an option for them, maybe due to busy schedules and lives.

However, giving as little as 2 hours a week of your time can be hugely beneficial and really does help to make a difference. We provide training, pay all out of pocket expenses and the personal rewards helping people, being part of a community and learning new skills are invaluable."
