Volunteering in Action Photo Competition
| 
WCVA recently ran a photo competition and we have just found out our photo was one of the lucky few to be selected to form part of an exhibition. The successful photo was taken at our recent Active Citizens Cultural Evening in Cardiff, in which our wonderful WMAD participants took part in some Indian Dancing to show the visitors a warm Welsh welcome!
The exhibition, titled 'Volunteering in Action' will take place at Swansea National Waterfront Museum from 15 June – 14 July, before moving to WCVA's Eisteddfod stand in Denbigh from 3-10 August.
We hope you have the opportunity to go and visit this exhibition in Swansea or Denbigh.

Women Making a Difference Ambassadors |
Women Making a Difference are looking for a number of volunteers; women who are familiar with our programme and wish to act as Ambassadors for us at meetings and events in Wales.
As you know the WMAD team is very small, and we are often so busy planning training courses, writing funding applications and empowering lots of women in Wales that we can't attend all of the amazing events that we are invited to participate in. What we are looking for are a small number of volunteers from the 700+ women who have taken part in our training that we could call on to attend these events and represent the Women Making a Difference project. |
