Volunteer: Give a little time, make a big difference
Volunteers are a vital part of the Goleudy team, providing extra support to our services as we tackle homelessness together.
In return we offer opportunities to connect with your local community, learn new skills, receive training and career development and benefit from time incentive schemes and personal support.
We are actively recruiting volunteers to help in our Community Services. If you feel you can offer your time and skills and you hold a non-judgemental approach towards vulnerable members of the community, please consider our following roles:-
Connect/Communities Volunteer
We are looking for friendly and enthusiastic volunteers to join Connect, our community service based in Swansea.
Connect provides a welcoming and supportive environment for people who may be experiencing social isolation, difficulties with their mental health, or who would simply like opportunities to meet others, build confidence and become more involved in their community.
Our volunteers work alongside the Communities Team to help us provide a varied programme of social, creative and wellbeing activities.
Community Fridge Volunteer Driver
We are looking for a reliable Community Fridge Volunteer Van Driver to support our Communities Team and Community Fridge project in Swansea.
Our Community Fridge helps us make good use of surplus food collected from local supermarkets and community partners. The food we collect supports our community activities and is also used to prepare food parcels for Goleudy's homelessness housing projects across Swansea.
As our Volunteer Van Driver, you will play an important practical role in collecting surplus food from agreed supermarkets and collection points, transporting it back to Connect and helping deliver prepared food parcels to our homelessness housing projects.
You do not need your own vehicle. Goleudy has a van based on site at Connect which will be used for agreed collections and deliveries.
This is an ideal volunteering opportunity for somebody who enjoys driving, prefers a practical and active role and would like to make a direct contribution to tackling food waste and supporting people experiencing homelessness and other challenges within the Swansea community.
If you are interested in either of these roles, or you would like a chat to find out more, please contact our team at volunteers@goleudy.org or call 01792 646071 Option 2.
