Volunteering Matters Wales

By focusing on four areas of work; disabled people, older people, young people and families we inspire our dedicated and ambitious volunteers to drive change in their communities.

Volunteering Matters has a long history of social action volunteering in Wales. We know that people are experiencing social isolation and huge inequalities in their communities.

We also know that by investing in people through volunteering we can reduce inequalities and isolation to build stronger more inclusive communities.

By focussing on four areas of work; disabled people, older people, young people and families we inspire our committed and ambitious volunteers to power change in their communities. We do this by delivering targeted, innovative and professional programmes across the country.
