Summary

For our new round starting in February 2025, we are again looking for Apeldoorn buddies who would like to meet with a newcomer once a week for 1 hour.

Detailed description

Do you want to meet a newcomer and do something fun together for 1 hour a week, drink a cup of tea, take a short walk, play tennis, watch football or play a game? Then sign up quickly!


We organize a round 4 times a year in which we match buddies from Apeldoorn with newcomer buddies (from the asylum seekers' center or a status holder).


You can join from the round in April and then for 4 months. We ask for 1x per week 1 hour for social contact with a buddy. We match on the basis of equality and interests, so that the contact can run extra smoothly. You also become part of our buddy community in which we organize many fun activities!
