Volunteer

As we are members of a number of voluntary associations, we can offer training courses to volunteers if they wish to develop particular skills. Our aim as a social enterprise is to develop the skills of volunteers.
We also work with Spice Time Credits which you can read more about here: if you volunteer with us we offer time credits to those who would like to be part of the scheme. Time credits can be spent in a variety of places such as leisure centres, trampoline parks, going to see a show and many more. Find out more here Spice Time.
Social Media
We always need help handing and building up our social media presence. We mainly use Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and Pinterest but are open to suggestions too!
Gardening
We have a lovely garden around the back of the centre in Cardiff, we welcome anyone who likes to garden to volunteer with us - no need to be an expert! We also have plants around the front and lots of weeding to do!

Cleaning is something we always need help with, whether it be washing up, cleaning cupboards, dusting, watering the plants, taking towels and blankets home to be washed.. the slightest help will be appreciated.
