Description
The second issue of Cardiff Voice, a community based magazine. It includes discussion about National Community Service as a solution to youth unemployment, news about NHS cuts and various Cardiff community issues, information on squatting and a campaign for people with learning disabilities.
Cardiff Voice was a community based magazine, published by Voluntary Community Service. Its aim was to respond to the needs, interests, and ideas of the people of Cardiff; it reported the issues that affected the people in the city.
Voluntary Community Service (VCS) was established in Cardiff in October 1964 with main aim, as stated in its constitution, to promote any charitable purposes, advancement of education, and relief of poverty, distress, and sickness in the City of Cardiff. Originally VCS co-ordinated a team of volunteers involved in activities such as helping elderly people with gardening and decorating, running summer ‘work camps’ for children and young people. Its mission today is to enable people who are most disadvantaged to engage with rewarding volunteering opportunities, facilitating their personal development and employment prospects.
