About the volunteering opportunity

Would you like to volunteer your time, energy, and good spirits while exploring the Hamburg area? Then our outings are just the thing for you
Our bus trips have been very popular for many years. Seniors living alone, in particular, appreciate the opportunity to get out and about, make new connections, and share new experiences together.

We’re looking for more dedicated volunteers to help organize the trips in Hamburg and the surrounding area together with our existing group and to take turns accompanying the group.

Location:
The outings start at Langenhorner Markt. Planning meetings take place approximately once a quarter at Langenhorner Markt or at our office in Barmbek.

  • You’ll research excursion destinations and plan the visit on-site 
  • You’ll accompany the outings you’ve planned along with other volunteers and oversee the activities on-site
