Summary
We are looking for hostesses and/or hosts for our Sunday afternoon opening. Markt 17 is an accessible meeting place.Detailed description
We want to offer a place to catch your breath in the center of Wageningen. A place where you can meet other people. A place where people listen and where attention, respect and hospitality are central. If this appeals to you and you would like to participate, we are looking for you!
What are you going to do?
Your duties consist of receiving visitors and making contact with them. Have a chat and/or offer a listening ear. Offer coffee or tea. Maintain a good atmosphere in which every visitor feels comfortable and safe. Keeping the visitors' area tidy and doing all the necessary practical work.
Who are we looking for?
In principle, the two of you always work a volunteer shift. You work according to the vision of Markt 17: an open and helpful attitude towards others. No condemnation of the visitor's difference. Everyone is allowed to be as she/he is. We work from the so-called 'Presence approach'. We ask our volunteers to have respect for people. Don't reject people. Being able to participate based on the Market 17 vision. Having your heart in the right place and being able to take a beating. Have space for (the story of) the other. Not wanting to 'take over' their story and thus focus attention on themselves. Not necessarily focused on problem solving. We are not an emergency service or healthcare institution. Paying attention and interest in people is what it's all about. Offering solidarity to the visitor, no matter how different/strange it may seem. Confidentiality: the visitors' story remains within the 4 walls of Markt 17. Unless otherwise agreed with them personally. A good command of the Dutch language is very important for this position. Knowledge of English or other languages is also welcome for any foreign-speaking visitors.
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 training that are organized locally. Volunteer meetings are occasionally organized. 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 worth it?
Our volunteers work in a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere. On Sundays, musical visitors make music. Volunteers meet people they would normally not encounter. Offering hospitality and a listening ear is not a one-way street: You often receive attention and interest in return from visitors.
