The Welsh Government and WCVA are co-creating a new approach to volunteering in Wales, with a progressive Vision to drive it. We see volunteering as benefiting not only those who are helped, but also the volunteers themselves and the wider community and society. Our vision is that volunteering becomes ever stronger as part of our identity and culture in Wales. We aim to spread awareness of its value and the importance of its diverse benefits, thereby strengthening the future impact of volunteering in every field of activity.
As part of the co-creation process, we want to test the level of support for the Vision statement and help improve and refine it. A short survey has been developed which gives you an opportunity to share your views on the Vision.
The survey is for any individuals and organisations who work with volunteers, or anyone who has an interest in supporting and developing the approach to volunteering in Wales.
We hope representatives from your organisation will complete the survey and also to ask if you would share the link with your members, networks and beneficiaries, so we can consult as widely as possible. The survey will be open until the end of May 2025.

As well as the survey, there will be additional chances to contribute to the Vision consultation through workshops and network meetings. An accompanying Delivery Framework is also being tested in the run up to gofod3 where we intend to launch the Vision.
Please get in touch with Becca Mattingley (beccamattingley@ukcrs.uk) if you have any queries about the Vision Consultation or would like to hear more about how you can get involved.
