Volunteering Wales connects volunteers and organisations the easy way

The new and improved Volunteering Wales website is a simple, effective and completely free way for organisations to recruit and manage volunteers.

Managed by TSSW (Third Sector Support Wales), Volunteering Wales links volunteers with the voluntary organisations that need them, and it couldn’t be simpler to take advantage of it.

VOLUNTEERING MADE EASY

It’s free to use, and over a thousand organisations have already taken advantage to start advertising their volunteering opportunities to the Welsh public.

Wales has a rich history of volunteering, in all the different forms it takes, and now it couldn’t be easier for people to help out in their local communities. Organisations are advertising all sorts of volunteer opportunities all across the country, from working in charity shops, to befriending services, helping organise charity runs and events and more.

Whether you’re an organisation looking for new volunteers, or someone who wants to give back to their community, Volunteering Wales can help you find what you need.

Volunteers are the backbone of the voluntary sector, and at a time when many are pushed for time and money, Volunteering Wales aims to make the process as simple and straightforward as possible so you can find and manage your volunteers with the minimum amount of fuss.

MANAGING VOLUNTEERS

Volunteering Wales allows you to directly demonstrate what volunteering for your organisation can do for people, and it’s a straightforward way for volunteers to sign up and record their volunteering activities.

Using volunteers time as match funding can be an important part of applying to funders, and Volunteering Wales allows you to quickly and easily record those hours. It can also help to develop people’s skills, and being an online platform means it’s more accessible for people wherever they are, whatever their needs.

The site is fully functional on mobile, tablet and desktop, and it can tell volunteers what’s available locally wherever they happen to be. This means they can find out what’s going on and manage and access their opportunities even when they’re on the move.
