Summary
The Wageningen Senior Citizens Platform is starting a Mobility working group to investigate and map out the possibilities for senior citizen transport in Wageningen.
Detailed description
The task of this working group is to investigate issues concerning mobility of elderly people in Wageningen. What possibilities for transport of elderly people are there in Wageningen? How does public transport work for elderly people? What possibilities for transport apart from public transport are there?
Driving skills and refresher courses are also part of the task of the working group. First, the working group will investigate mobility issues and possibilities and then activities can be organized around this theme.
The intended candidate will, together with the other working group members, search for information about mobility for the elderly in Wageningen and share this information with the Platform in newsletters and/or meetings.
The intended candidate does not have to be a member of an association for the elderly.
