You can make a difference

Your care, skills, and determination have the power to change lives. Volunteering with Hafod is a chance to do something truly meaningful, share your talents, pick up new skills, meet fantastic people, and make a real impact in your community.
 
At Hafod, we’ll show you just how much of a difference you’re making, whether it’s for individuals, families, or entire communities. Along the way, you’ll have fun, make friends, and create memories that’ll last a lifetime.
