Your time, skills and experience can help us make sure no one has to care alone

We have a dedicated team of volunteers working across Wales to champion carers across Wales. They raise awareness of caring and Carers Wales, campaign for improved carers’ rights, fundraise for our work and connect carers with the right information and support they need. 

As a volunteer champion, we will support you to use your skills to help make life better for carers. Along the way, you’ll also develop new skills and make new friends.  

Whether you’ve only a few hours to spare or can make a longer commitment, there will be a valuable part for you to play. Click on the links below to find out more and apply or contact us at volunteer@carerswales.org

Spread the word in your community

As a Community Champion, you’ll help connect carers to valuable support and information by distributing Carers Wales' materials – such as leaflets and posters – within your community and hold information stands where carers will be. 

Use your experience to make a difference

As an Carer Voice Champion, you’ll help influence campaigns, services and resources to provide the best possible support for carers. 

Be a voice for carers in the workplace

As a Workplace Champion you are the vital link between Carers UK and your colleagues. You’ll spread the word about caring and raise awareness in your workplace.
