Joining the Dots - Episode 14 - Volunteers Week
<p>It's <a href="https://cavuhb.nhs.wales/news/latest-news/volunteers-week-2026-thank-you-to-our-health-board-volunteers/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Volunteers Week</a>, a time when we celebrate the people who volunteer across a host of charities and organisations and remember that without them, many of the things we take for granted simply wouldn’t happen. So, a huge shout out to those of you who volunteer and a big thank you for all you do.</p><p><a href="https://volunteering-wales.net/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Volunteering Wales</a> is the place to start if you want to dip your toe into volunteering but you also want help to identify what and where is best for you. They aim to make volunteering easy for volunteers and organisations across the country and there are loads of volunteering opportunities on their website . They currently have 2622 advertised and the opportunities range from befriending to being a Welsh translator to a support assistant, a driver, sitting on a youth-led grant panel to being an oral history recorder. </p><p>Here at <a href="https://www.radioglamorgan.com/presenters/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Hospital Radio Glamorgan</a>, our station is run entirely by volunteers, that means everyone on air and off it gives up some of their time to keep our station running, online, in the hospitals and on DAB and via our app. And on this show, some of our volunteers share what being able to contribute to the station means to them. <a href="https://www.radioglamorgan.com/2023/07/05/jaynes-running-the-cardiff-half-marathon/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Jayne Jones</a> wakes us up on a Sunday morning and she’s on air between 7-10am. Jayne is a huge music fan and also contributes specialist music shows across the station. Jayne is also a runner and has run to raise money for HRG. </p><p>Andrew Woolfe is the voice who brings us <a href="https://cavuhb.nhs.wales/news/latest-news/hospital-radio-glamorgan-awards-long-serving-volunteer-with-honorary-life-membership/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Music Was My First Love</a>. He's had some incredible guests over the years. The programme is now into its eighth series and we hear from one of its latest guests and our oldest volunteer, <a href="https://cavuhb.nhs.wales/news/latest-news/hospital-radio-glamorgan-awards-long-serving-volunteer-with-honorary-life-membership/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">John Webber</a>. Saturday Matinee's Jill Brinkworth also shares her reasons for volunteering at HRG and beyond. Jill is also fundraising for the station this month (June) by cycling the 54 miles from London to Brighton. You can support Jill <a href="https://www.radioglamorgan.com/2026/05/06/jills-cycle-challenge/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">HERE</a>.</p><p>We hear from the station's chair, Jamie Pritchard, too. Jamie has broadcasting in his blood and he shares how volunteering at Hospital Radio Glamorgan started and what the station has meant to him over more than two decades of involvement.</p>

Joining the Dots - Episode 13 - Disappointed but not defeated and do you meditate?
<p>Our weekly mix of informative, uplifting and interesting conversation designed to help us join the dots in life. We’re onto programme 13 of this relatively new show. Unlucky for some, but not for us! Our focus is on accepting disappointment without feeling defeated. University of South Wales Sports Journalism final year student <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/sam-hill-j/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Sam Hill</a> spoke to <a href="https://teamwales.cymru/people/rosie-eccles/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Rosie Eccles</a>, the Welsh light middleweight boxer who is the epitome of strength, decency and determination. Sadly, she’s had to give up on her Olympic dream, but she won’t let that define her. Hers is a story of inspiration.</p><p>And we mark May's World Meditation Day with a look at the <a href="https://www.nhs.uk/every-mind-matters/mental-wellbeing-tips/how-to-meditate-for-beginners/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">NHS information</a> on meditation and what the benefits of it are. There are many, many groups available and lots of meditations accessible online. </p>

Joining the Dots - Episode 12 - Stroke, Skin Cancer and the Choir of Man
<p>May is action on stroke month and skin cancer awareness month. We found out what’s happening in and around the Cardiff and Vale health board area to support stroke patients and why the campaign for all of us to check the moles on our skin is particularly pertinent at this time of year, as we head into the warmer weather.</p><p>A stroke is a medical emergency and requires immediate attention as every second counts A stroke happens when the blood supply to part of the brain is cut off. Identifying a stroke isn’t always straightforward, but the NHS guidelines suggest following these steps to do so: The acronym they recommend is FAST, wholly appropriate given the speed with which diagnosis needs to happen. FAST stands for FACE; ARM; SPEECH and TIME.</p><p>After a stroke most people need support and at the <a href="https://cavuhb.nhs.wales/our-services/clinical-gerentology/stroke-rehabilitation/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">stroke rehabilitation unit in Llandough Hospita</a>l, there’s important work going on to help rehabilitate patients, including art therapy sessions. Esther Lewis is a trainee art psychotherapist doing a masters degree in Art Psychotherapy and in November she set up sessions for stroke patients. Art therapy isn’t an art class, but a chance for the patients to explore their feelings through the act of art creation.</p><p>The <a href="https://www.stroke.org.uk/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Stroke Association</a> charity is looking for lived experience telephone support volunteers across the country. If you’ve had a stroke over one year ago, or care for someone who has, and feel you could support someone in their recovery journey, this role is for you.</p><p>No-one likes to hear the word cancer, and skin cancer is no exception. However, 90% of skin cancer cases are preventable, and if detected, diagnosed and treated early, almost all cases are curable. Melanoma skin cancer cases in the UK are at an all-time high, and Cancer Research UK says rates of melanoma – which is skin cancer that can spread – have increased by almost a third over a decade. The charity says 17,000 cases each year are preventable. Cases are up across all age groups, but particularly among the elderly.</p><p>Cardiff and Vale Macmillan Skin Cancer Clinical Nurse Specialist, Anwen explained the five simple sun safety tips to protect the skin and reduce the risk of developing skin cancer. Remember: SLIP, SLOP, SLAP, SLIDE & SHADE. And the Skcin charity’s mobile app also got a mention. It’s free and is available from their <a href="https://www.skcin.org/resources/the-skcin-mobile-app/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">website</a>.</p>
