We are looking for a volunteer for a friendly elderly gentleman who enjoys chatting, doing puzzles, or painting with him.

After a long period of severe back pain, Annelies recently underwent back surgery. She recently moved to a house in the woods and has few contacts there. Her husband passed away a few years ago. She would love to go for walks with someone in her neighborhood to gradually improve her fitness. But she's also clearly looking for companionship. She previously worked as a secretary in healthcare and is easy to talk to. She's still dealing with the aftermath of the move. She prefers a male or female companion between 30 and 60 years old. She prefers to meet in the afternoon because she needs time to get started in the morning.


Who are you?

  • A woman or man between 30 and 60 years old
  • You can listen well
  • You are open-minded
  • You can take initiative, but above all, give the other person the space to take it


What do we have to offer the volunteer?

  • an enthusiastic team of volunteers
  • expert guidance and support
  • basic training and meet-ups
  • Third-party liability and accident insurance
  • travel allowance

About Humanitas Ontmoet

Humanitas is there for people who like to go outside now and then, but can't do that themselves without a buddy (anymore). By doing activities with a buddy, they can (again) keep in touch with society.
