Volunteer and make a real difference in your community

Good Neighbours in North Cardiff (GNIC) was established in 1981 by Llanishen Churches Together. At that time known as ‘Llanishen Good Neighbours’, they registered as a charity in 2000. In 2015 the charity renamed itself to ‘Good Neighbours in North Cardiff’ which reflects the areas covered – Thornhill, Llanishen, Lisvane, Heath, Roath Park, Lakeside and west Cyncoed. In 2024 the group is expanding to include Rhiwbina in its service area.

Good Neighbours - helping a client with transport by car

Most of the volunteers are drivers, others prefer to offer companionship or maybe escort a client on a visit to outpatients. Some choose a regular job, others need the freedom to choose times to suit themselves.
