Summary

Walking buddy for residents who want to take a regular walk...

Detailed description

Several of our residents need to get outside regularly. They need guidance to do this; a walking buddy provides a pleasant walk and a chat.

This concerns residents with a wheelchair or walker who have physical disabilities and/or dementia.

A walk is only short, 30 to 45 minutes, and can be concluded or started with a pleasant chat and coffee...

Unfortunately, we prefer volunteers who are proficient in Dutch, due to our elderly residents with dementia.

What volunteers need

😇 Disclosure and Barring Service
