Volunteering

Every year, there are more than 200 opportunities to help council teams deliver services in local communities. 

Volunteering is a great way to learn new skills, meet new people and improve your health and well-being. 

There are regular volunteering opportunities with the following teams: 

  • Adult learning 
  • Cemeteries 
  • Community mentoring 
  • Environmental teams 
  • Libraries 
  • Litter and Fly-tipping prevention 
  • Play Service  
  • Youth Service  

How to volunteer 

  • Visit Connect Torfaen for the latest volunteer opportunities. Information about the role, including location and number of hours required, will be included. 
  • Complete the application form.  
  • The team will consider your application and be in touch. 

Some volunteering opportunities will provide training leading to qualifications. 

Some may require a DBS check, but teams will be able to advise.  

Providing volunteering opportunities is one of the ways the council is working more closely with local communities to improve well-being and resilience.
