Community Engagement/Wellbeing Project

Project Applicants: Angor

Anchor Programme: Sustainable Communities

Location: Carmarthenshire

Angor believes the impact of cancer, or a life-limiting illness, is not just physical and that a holistic approach is needed for recovery. This project works closely with vulnerable individuals and their families to support their wellbeing post diagnosis. This has been achieved through developing their volunteer base and outreach work.

Funding has supported staff to recruit, train and support over 30 new volunteers, and a manager to oversee the project.

The project has attended five large events and held regular programmes for over 100 new users.
