Objectives

Caerphilly Miners is a charity working to give back a restored part of the Caerphilly Miners hospital to the community as social enterprise, delivering services and to support well-being. We are looking for volunteers who are willing to give back to the community and further their social life.

The project seeks to deliver the following outcomes:
• Ensuring equality, social inclusion and sustainability
• Supporting people’s education and learning
• Generating interest in and awareness of the heritage of the miners
• Providing activities to support the well-being and care of community members
• Working in partnership to deliver adequately resourced and sustainable services

Our multi-use facility provides a place to socialise, learn and develop skills, access information, and participate in community activities.

Activities

We work with over 20 partners from statutory, voluntary and business sectors and our local community. This helps to deliver services more sustainably and achieve better community buy-in. Work-place trainees and volunteers are rewarded for there time and dedication to the project through an annual aware ceremony. Our Partnerships Committee meets quarterly to ensure synergy with other stakeholders and to jointly meet our community’s needs.
