Community Language Volunteers
We at the Cardiff Volunteer Centre @C3SC want to share information with the diverse communities in Cardiff. Although English is the primary language used in the information we provide, we are conscious that English or Welsh is not everyone’s first or native language. We are aware that a lot of people would prefer to speak, read and communicate in their language of choice.
– Attending events, fairs and drop-in sessions to support C3SC in their outreach to local communities.

We work 24 hours a day, seven days a week, across an area of about 800 square miles from Swansea to Merthyr Tydfil to our capital city, Cardiff. It’s a job but where no two days are the same – and it offers a variety of fulfilling and exciting career.
The role can be challenging, and you will need to be resilient and resourceful, but we are here to support you. You will need to be committed to a journey that requires balancing academic requirements and a new role within a 24/7 policing service. It is a job like no other and we are looking for people with diverse skills and experiences to join our successful team.
