Detailed description

Going out together in Wageningen with the wheelchair.

Job description:

Due to circumstances I lead a withdrawn life. My condition is bad, but I can go outside with a wheelchair. Now I see few possibilities, but maybe I can experience them together with a buddy.

Job requirements:

- you rather listen than you talk. - you are open-minded, you are not quick to judge. - you have a searching attitude. - you can take the initiative and especially let the other take it. - makes you enthusiastic, encourages but does not direct.

What do you have to offer the volunteer ?:

- an enthusiastic volunteer team. - expert guidance and support. - internal training, team consultation and meeting events. - we learn a lot from each other through the mutual exchange of experiences with fellow volunteers. - Liability and accident insurance. - travel allowance.

What makes the work worthwhile ?:

Our volunteers say: "It was great to go on the road together, we did not know where we would end up, but we went further step by step." "I was involved and at the same time a neutral participant of what a participant is going through." "It has given me satisfaction, without any ulterior motive." "My buddy was able to bring out in me what I didn't know I had in me."

Working time:

In consultation.
