Celebrating the contributions of older volunteers on International Older People’s Day

To mark International Day of Older People, the Welsh Government is celebrating the vital role older volunteers play in building stronger, more connected communities, and helping other older people.

Every day, older people across Wales step up to support people in their communities, providing opportunities to become part of social groups that improve overall well-being, breaking down barriers of isolation, and empowering others to engage with public services and financial advice. The Welsh Government provides funding for volunteering opportunities for older people through Age Cymru’s HOPE and Physical Activity Programmes.
