Help honour those unsung charity volunteers

The Welsh Charity Awards recognise and celebrate the fantastic contribution charities, community groups, not-for-profits and volunteers make to Wales. 

Organised by WCVA, a national membership body for voluntary organisations, the awards took place for the first time in 2019 and were kindly sponsored by Class Networks.
 
WCVA has made the difficult decision to cancel this year’s awards with the safety of all involved in mind.
 
The #NotTheWelshCharityAwards campaign will take place throughout October and will share personal stories of how voluntary organisations or volunteers have made a big impact over the last year.
 
If you have a personal story to share about a charity or volunteer that has made a big difference to people's lives, give them a well-deserved shout out by getting involved in the campaign.
 
WCVA wants to hear about the community groups, social enterprises, not-for-profit groups
of all kinds (and volunteers!) that you would nominate for the #NotTheWelshCharityAwards. 

The organisation says it may not be able to give out trophies or invite them up on stage, but can certainly recognise and give a big heartfelt thanks to would-be-winners and nominees.
 
You can get involved by submitting a short video nomination, or sharing your story on social media. Find out more about how to take part here.
 
The stories will be shared using the hashtag #NotTheWelshCharityAwards throughout October, but you can submit your nomination today.
