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.
