We run on a sessional basis. Usually 22 days of the year, however there will be more sessions throughout this Summer to support our young people on day trips out. We pay £11 per hour and provide lunch and mileage costs. The sessions are for 6 hours each day.

We know that there is an increased interest and questions about bowel cancer and bowel screening within communities following the recent media coverage of Dame Deborah James (our Patron and bowel cancer patient). We want to continue this vital work to raise awareness of bowel cancer signs and symptoms and encourage people in Wales to take up bowel screening.

Natural Resources Wales has launched their Resilient Communities Grant Funding

Last year saw the very successful Welsh Government funded project – Dangos – raise the awareness of financial issues for over 3,500 frontline workers in Wales. This year, a second round of Dangos is about to start – even bigger and better. As well as the basic courses we ran last year, this year we are also offering a range of intermediate level sessions for people with more experience.

As another month comes to an end, we at Citizens Advice Cardiff & Vale wanted to let you know of what courses we have available during next month.
