What is Volunteens?
Volunteens is a pioneering project initiated in October 2022 as part of the Strategic Volunteering Grant Round 2. Funded by the Welsh Government and administered by WCVA and Volunteering in Wales, the project was created to engage young people in meaningful volunteer work. Initially planned for a year, its success has led to continued funding. The name "Volunteens" was chosen by the young participants themselves, reflecting the project's youth-led ethos.
Volunteering provides significant advantages not only to the community but also to the volunteers themselves. Our Volunteens have reported numerous personal gains, which include:
"I loved getting involved! I would love to do this or something similar again. Maybe we could get more people involved because it’s a great opportunity."
"Working together to create real change and building sustainable communities where everyone has a decent standard of living."
