Volunteering
Y Lolfa is a community-managed Library run by volunteers. It provides a central hub for lending both Neath Port Talbot Libraries books and Y Lolfa's Own Collections.
Without our volunteers we would not be able to open the library for the community. We need people to help in the library itself, with events and activities, with 1:1 reading and with keeping the library running. If you'd be interesting in becoming involved just fill out the online e-form on the link below
Link to Volunteer in the library
We also have volunteer trustees who look after the way the library and charity are run. If you'd be interesting in becoming involved just fill out the online e-form on the link below

Volunteering can be beneficial in many ways, confidence boosting plus CV boosting it is often a great stepping stone to work or can be a great way to meet people and give a little back to the community!
