This project works by providing support to our volunteers and other charity members, equipping them with essential skills such as presentation, media outreach, event planning, and fundraising. Funding from donations will cover all associated costs, including travel, enabling the participation of communities with lived experience—a crucial aspect of our inclusivity efforts. Through community events, we work at connecting local residents and new arrivals in Swansea, facilitating dialogue and amplifying the voices of our volunteers. These gatherings will serve as platforms to identify community champions who advocate for asylum seekers and refugees.
While we take pride in the diversity of our volunteers, including the representation of individuals with lived experience of seeking asylum, in leadership roles, there are still underrepresented communities in Swansea. As demographics among new arrivals evolve, it's vital for our organisation to mirror the diversity of those we aim to serve. The proposed Community Cohesion project builds upon our recent capacity building initiatives, extending our reach to communities currently underrepresented in Swansea City of Sanctuary.
With your donation, we will continue to recruit and engage volunteers from diverse communities in and around Swansea, broadening our network to include voices from various backgrounds. This project presents an opportune moment to showcase our organisation's mission to a local and international audience, highlighting the myriad roles and opportunities available for volunteers
