Summary

Mrs. O. is insecure and anxious about walking through an accident. She has physio but also wants to practice small pieces outside. Please join her as an accompaniment

Detailed description

The vacancies that we now post are corona-proof: the client and the volunteer can easily keep 1.5 meters away.


Mrs. O. is 56 years old, lives in the center of Hilversum and has a harder time walking due to an accident. She now needs a stick. She has become anxious and insecure. She has physiotherapy but she would also like to practice outside small areas, starting with 100 meters. She is perfectly able to indicate what she is willing and able to do.

If you have patience and want to help Mrs to make small steps forward, you will make her life so much more enjoyable. Because increasing her mobility increases her independence.

About Sherpa

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!
