What can I do?

Whatever your age, interests or background, whether you can commit regularly or occasionally, there is likely to be something suitable for you. There are opportunities to volunteer in a wide variety of settings for example out-of-doors, in community centres or care homes, offices or your own home and you can take part in many different activities such as fundraising, sports, befriending, administrative work, or practical help and support to children, young or older people.

What you do as a volunteer depends on what you want to achieve. Everyone has a personal reason for volunteering and you should choose something that will help you fulfil your personal goal.

One of the best ways to find out about volunteering is to hear from the volunteers themselves. You can read about the experiences of real volunteers in Wales by clicking on the links on the right hand side of this page. We’ll be adding to these over the next few months.
