Just in case you're not on any of our e-mail lists, please find information circulated earlier in the light of the current Coronavirus situation for volunteers and community groups. We're receiving new information all the time so this may well be updated soon.
Volunteers – we are actively encouraging people who wish to volunteer, together with local organisations who need new volunteers to register on the Volunteering Wales database
VAMT’s Volunteer Centre also now has an Instagram page https://www.instagram.com/volunteermerthyr/ with which we hope to attract younger people who wish to volunteer
Services
you can provide
– we’re actively publicising and creating an internal database of what services
can be provided in communities, from dog walking, shopping, running errands to
telephone befriending schemes to minimise isolation. If there is
something you’d like us to promote and to add to our database, please contact hilary.edwards@vamt.net 01685 353917.
Keeping
up to date
– to avoid us filling up your inbox with lots of emails, as the
information we receive changes/develops, we’re going to use “latest news”
on the front page of our website to keep everyone up to date. You can
subscribe to this (network news blog) on our website or just visit. We’ll
be updating this daily as we’re made aware of new services or have more
useful information available. This will also be posted on Facebook
and Twitter.Further information for community groups
