We also run a series of regional events across Wales with our County Voluntary Council (CVC) partners, Third Sector Support Wales as well as attending the National Eisteddfod to showcase the great work of charities in Wales.
WCVA hosts a wide range of events each year from gofod3, our annual flagship event for the sector, to the Welsh Charities Awards and other events for voluntary organisations during trustees and safeguarding week.

gofod3
gofod3 is an event we organise in collaboration with the voluntary sector in Wales. Unlike any other event in Wales, it is our space to learn from, motivate and inspire one another. It offers a rare opportunity for the third sector to come together and effect change in Wales.

Trustees' Week
Trustees’ Week is an annual event to showcase the great work that trustees do and highlight opportunities for people from all walks of life to get involved and make a difference. We celebrate the week by hosting an event on a topic of relevance to Chairs and Trustees. Previous events have looked at the relationship between a Chair and a Chief Executive, the challenges that Chairs face in their role and creating a positive board culture.

National Eisteddfod
In August of each year, we have a stand at the National Eisteddfod, Wales’ largest celebration of culture and language. We showcase the breadth of the charity sector in Wales by inviting charities to join us on our stand and run activities throughout the week. If you would like to join us at the next Eisteddfod, get in touch!
