COVID-19: Supporting Volunteering and Community Activities

The Staff team at Cardiff Third Sector Council are currently fielding enquiries from

  • Individuals
  • Voluntary and Community groups developing their own responses and contingency plans
  • Public Sector partners seeking the best way to access safe, coordinated voluntary and community-based support for the residents of Cardiff

In our role as the CVC we are concentrating our efforts on being the conduit between support offered and support needed, whilst supporting organisations, some newly formed, with their governance and planning. We wish to reassure you of the measures C3SC is taking during the current pandemic. Our office in Baltic House is closed. However, we plan to operate as far as possible through remote working. We are remaining up to date with official guidance on face to face meetings, and therefore at the present time we are keeping meetings to the minimum and only attending those where our presence is essential. In addition to emails, we may be able to video or telephone conference where required on request. If you have any enquiries, please email [email protected] or telephone your usual contact or see our website for our contact details.
