Summary

We are looking for someone who can do Turkish activities with Sedat.

Detailed description

Who is Sedat?

Sedat is a man from 1971 with an intellectual disability. He functions at the level of a toddler and can make clear what he wants. He is a sweet and affectionate man and loves to do fun things like going to the city, music or to an event. He can certainly respond very enthusiastically to Turkish people. He greets anyone he thinks he recognizes and really builds a bond with his volunteer. He enjoys great food and drink and driving a car. Sometimes he has a short fuse and can get angry for a while, but never reacts physically. Sedat is independent in terms of ADL, but just not traffic safe. He walks short distances by the arm, has a bicycle and gets into the car easily. He is paralyzed on one side and can barely use one arm and drags one leg. This does not hinder him much.

What is Sedat looking for?

Sedat has a Turkish background, but unfortunately nothing is done about this. That is why we are looking for someone with a Turkish background. Someone who can talk Turkish with him, listen Turkish music with him, want to eat and drink Turkish with him and possibly do other fun activities with him. This would be really great for him! So do you have a Turkish background and are you excited after reading? Then respond!

We offer

  • 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
  • involved contribution to the clients
  • full appreciation and a priceless experience
