Community Assisted Mentoring initiative launches at The Parish Trust

The Parish Trust is delighted to announce the receipt of a £20,000 grant from the WCVA, funded by the Welsh Government for the enhancement of volunteering in Wales.

This grant is going to help The Parish Trust to set up a new project called CAM, which stands for Community Assisted Mentoring. This project is designed to develop the skills and experience of members of the community, whilst also enhancing the skills of the volunteers leading the groups. 

We are very excited to get CAM up and running. We will be updating on our social media as we begin to get things going. To give you all a better idea of what we will be doing as part of CAM, here’s a summary…

  • CV Enhancing Classes
  • Welsh Language Development Coffee Mornings
  • Befriending
  • Work-Placement Opportunities on Caffi Caredig
  • Technology and Digital Literacy Lessons

We feel that these classes and groups will really help the community to develop their skills and learn new things that will help them in life. 

We are keen to get volunteers on board who are keen to help the community in a face-to-face capacity. Would you like to get involved with CAM as a volunteer? You can sign up here.

The Parish Trust is extremely grateful to the grant donors who made this possible. We can’t wait to update you all on how this project progresses in the near future! Watch this space!
