Summary
Are you a hospitable person with an open demeanor? Put your talents to good use as a host/hostess on Tuesday, Wednesday, or Friday afternoons.
Detailed description
In consultation you will be scheduled one afternoon per week or possibly per 2 weeks. Markt 17 is an accessible meeting place. A place where you can meet other people and/or eat together. A place where people listen and where attention, respect and hospitality are central.
What does it mean?
Receiving visitors and making contact with them. Have a chat and/or offer a listening ear. Offer coffee or tea. Maintain a good atmosphere (house rules) in which every visitor feels at ease and safe. Keeping the visitor's room tidy and doing all kinds of practical activities necessary for this.
Who are we looking for?
You work according to the vision of Markt 17: an open and subservient attitude towards others. No condemnation of the visitor's otherness. Everyone can be there as she/he is. For this position it is important that you have a good command of the Dutch language. Knowledge of English or other languages is also welcome because of any non-native speakers.
What do we have to offer you?
The coordinator is the point of contact for questions and offers coaching / guidance. Both in the corridors and by appointment. The coordinator also points out various relevant courses and trainings that are organized locally. Volunteer meetings are organized occasionally. Here you meet fellow volunteers and discuss the work together. Collective accident and damage insurance has been arranged for volunteers by the municipality of Wageningen.
What makes the work worthwhile?:
Our volunteers work in an environment with a lot of fun and in a relaxed atmosphere. Volunteers meet people they would not normally meet. This gives you the opportunity to broaden your social network. Offering hospitality and a listening ear is not a one-way street: you often receive attention and interest in return from visitors.
Working time:
2:45 pm to 6:00 pm
