Volunteering During A Pandemic

Volunteers have been the key to keeping advice services running throughout Caerphilly and Blaenau Gwent during this pandemic. We asked our volunteers why they joined us during the Covid Pandemic. This is what they said:

Kieran Hughes said:”Volunteering at Citizens Advice was an easy choice when I thought about it. It provided an opportunity to meet a like-minded community, develop my capabilities, and use this chance to help those in need – especially in a trying time such as the COVID-19 pandemic.”

Millie Dobson wanted to be able help people out during this weird time and has found her time with CACBG as experience. She said: “It will support my CV and make me more employable post university. As a law student, it is enabling me put the things I have studied (online during covid!) into real life scenarios. The team at Caerphilly have been so supportive, and I love being able to make a difference.”
