Celebrating Our Volunteers – Past, Present & Always

This Volunteer Week, we at Chinese In Wales Association want to say a heartfelt thank you to every volunteer who has walked through our doors, rolled up their sleeves, and given their time, skills, and heart to our community.

Over the years, you have been the invisible thread holding so much of our work together, from supporting elderly members who would otherwise feel isolated, to mentoring young people, preparing food for cultural celebrations, capturing precious moments behind the camera, and bringing our festivals to life with your music, dance, and art. Because of you, we have been able to promote Chinese-Welsh cultural exchange, improve the wellbeing of our community members, and build a truly inclusive home for everyone. Research shows that volunteering reduces loneliness, builds confidence, and even boosts your CV, but what you've given us goes far beyond that. You've given us hope, warmth, and the proof that small acts of kindness create big change. 💚

📢 Want to join our amazing team? We are currently looking for event assistants, translation helpers, digital class assistants, youth activity leaders, and cultural performers/instructors (dance, music, kung fu, tai chi, calligraphy, crafts). No fixed time commitment, you choose what fits your life. We also reward your time with service badges, reference letters, and Tempo Time Credits, free theatre, museum visits, and wellness activities across Wales. Click the link below to register and become part of our volunteer family. The next award winner could be you!

Time: 11:30–13:00

Online meeting link ：meet.google.com/rzh-rcgv-ajk

About the Talk
Grief is a natural psychological process that helps us adjust to major losses in life—not only the death of a loved one, but also the loss of health, identity, relationships, roles, or life plans. It is not a sign of weakness, nor something that needs to be “fixed”. Instead, it is a healthy human response that supports long‑term mental wellbeing.

Topics Covered
- Common expressions of grief
- How to support someone who is grieving
- How to face and process your own pain
- How cultural background shapes grief

All Are Welcome
This is a free event, and everyone is warmly invited to join us in learning more about one of our important emotional experiences —grief—and how to approach it with understanding and compassion.
