VOLUNTEER SUPPORT LOSS AND MOURNEY

Everyone comes into contact with loss in his life. Death of a family member or other loved one, but also another drastic loss such as having to give up living independently, loss of a job, divorce, serious illness. There are many types of loss and every loss has a grieving process associated with it. All kinds of feelings can play a role in this. Everyone handles their loss in their own way.

• Preference is given to volunteers with personal experience in the field of loss and grief.
• A self-critical attitude is expected of the volunteer.
• He/she is open to coaching during the regularly scheduled meetings and will contact the coordinator if necessary.
• The volunteer keeps an eye on the objective of support in the event of loss and mourning, and knows how to keep a distance despite compassion.
• The volunteer knows his limits and identifies underlying problems in a timely manner and any necessary support from professional care providers.

What do you get in return?

• A training (incl. certificate);
• Guidance from a coordinator, someone you can always fall back on;
