Summary

Karel is looking for a volunteer who will come especially for him on Wednesday afternoons at the weekend or in the evening.

Detailed description

Who is Karel?

Karel is a young man of 22 years old with a moderate intellectual disability. He understands what you are saying and can communicate in a normal way. Karel is fully mobile and is traffic safe (bicycle).

He lives in a residential group within the grounds of 's Heeren Loo. He can enjoy all the little things in his own way. He also enjoys 1 on 1 attention and doing activities together. The volunteer's art is to hold his attention for more than an hour, because his attention span is somewhat short. It is important to encourage him in this.

Examples of activities that you could do with Karel are: Bowling, eating an ice cream, touring in the car, swimming, possibly boxing.

What does Karel ask?

Karel asks someone to come by once a week, 2 weeks or a month to do fun little activities with him. Age and gender matter less than the click he might have with his volunteer. Someone who knows how to stimulate and motivate him to complete the activity and to keep his attention on it.

Patience and calm open appearance is pleasant.

We offer you

  • A nice volunteer place
  • An end-of-year gift
  • Insured for third party liability and accidents
  • Travel allowance
  • Annual volunteer party as a thank you for your efforts
  • Possibility of training and information meetings
