So we're a little late in sharing this extra special bit of news! We have ANOTHER award winning volunteer at DOVE Workshop 🎉🎊

Our very special Mair Francis topped the category at the annual Volunteering Awards facilitated by Neath Port Talbot CVS, winning the Adult Volunteer of the Year.

Mair has dedicated a huge portion of her life to DOVE Workshop, ensuring the work we do is appropriate and impactful. Mair has community activism running through her veins, and this continues to show in her role as Vice Chair of our board of trustees.

Congratulations to Mair and all the other volunteers recognised at the awards ceremony. Volunteers make a huge difference to our communities, and deserve every bit of recognition they get 🩷

Help keep siblings together 💜💜

Can you imagine being a child, and getting told that you’re not only going to live with other people, but you’re also being separated from your sibling/s?

Keeping siblings together is crucial for stability, security, and comfort.

We need more foster carers who can help keep siblings together and provide them with a loving and stable family home.

Find out more information on how to become a foster carer with us here: https://npt.fosterwales.gov.wales/

Helpwch i gadw siblingiaid gyda’i gilydd 💜💜

Allwch chi ddychmygu bod yn blentyn, a chael gwybod eich bod yn mynd i fyw gyda phobl eraill a chael eich gwahanu oddi wrth eich brodyr/chwiorydd?

Mae cadw brodyr a chwiorydd gyda'i gilydd yn hanfodol ar gyfer sefydlogrwydd, diogelwch a chysur.

Mae angen rhagor o ofalwyr maeth arnom a all helpu i gadw brodyr a chwiorydd gyda'i gilydd a darparu cartref teuluol cariadus a sefydlog iddynt.

Gallwch gael rhagor o wybodaeth am sut i ddod yn ofalwr maeth gyda ni yma: https://cnpt.maethucymru.llyw.cymru/
