Summary

Jennifer is 60 years old, lives in Eemnes and likes to go for a walk with someone with a dog. But she also likes drawing or painting together.

Detailed description

This vacancy is corona-proof.


Nice dog huh, in the picture. If you also have a nice dog who likes to walk (race is not important of course), if you are patient and friendly and you like company when walking the dogs, Jennifer likes to walk with you from time to time.


Jennifer has NAH (non-congenital brain injury) and therefore does not take much action. Walking the dog together is wonderful for her, going outside and talking a little. She is somewhat black and white in her response and we avoid discussions. When it clicks, she is very friendly. She is religious and that is very important to her.


Would you like to make Jennifer happy with a dog walk every now and then (where, when and how often in consultation), please contact us for a no-obligation introductory meeting with Amber or Olga, our volunteer coordinators.

Every person has the right to a pleasant life. Your own home and workplace where you feel at home. Prospects for a fun, meaningful day. A day when you meet others. Give content and shape to your life. Of course it's no different if you have a disability. That is why Sherpa supports people with a disability. With around 1500 employees and 560 volunteers, Sherpa provides services to around 1400 clients with an intellectual and / or physical disability. A team of experts provides the guidance and support that clients need to fully participate in society. They put the unique in every person at the center and work professionally, involved and in consultation with the client and his environment.

Activities
Sherpa is always looking for enthusiastic volunteers. How often you meet depends on you. Some like to go to the local market together every week, others agree on a monthly basis. The employees of the Social Deployment Office listen to your wishes, hobbies and interests and put them next to the questions of the clients. That way we always look for the perfect match!
