Profile picture of Fiona Liddell Helpforce Manager Wales

Helpforce Cymru Manager 

Fiona has been working with WCVA on the promotion and support of volunteering for over 20 years. Her current role has particular focus on volunteering within health and care in Wales. 

This is part of our wider health and care project which aims for better integration of the voluntary sector and volunteering within statutory sector planning and delivery. 

Fiona has close links with Helpforce, which supports innovation and evaluation of volunteering in health and care settings across the UK. She also works with key partners in Wales such as Bevan Commission, charities, Health Boards, County Voluntary Councils and government bodies. 

Fiona’s earlier employment was in NHS health promotion, so her current role happily combines her interests in community health and wellbeing and in volunteering. 

Outside of work Fiona may be found in the garden or volunteering at Llanishen reservoir, where she is secretary to the Friends group.
