We're on the lookout for kind,
compassionate people in Cardiff
At Local Welcome, we make it fun and easy to bring people together through shared meals. Whether you’re new to the area, a long-time local, or a refugee, we support our Leaders in organising monthly cooking and eating events in their communities where everyone feels at home, and diverse strangers meet for the first time.
Local Welcome magic lasts beyond meals - we asked our Members, and 75% of them shared that they feel more at home in their community, 83% feel more confident and 91% feel more positive after attending meals. 90% of members looking to improve their English do so too. Our Leaders feel good about the impact as well - 88% believe their group is making a difference in the local community.

Our Leaders are kind, values-led humans who want to embody the change they’d like to see in their local community. You don’t need to be good at cooking, or even had any experience in a ‘leadership’ role before - the secret power of a team of Local Welcome Leaders is the diverse range of backgrounds and skills they share between them!
