About the volunteering opportunity
For many elderly people, loneliness and isolation is unfortunately a reality. When relatives have no time or live far away, when friends have already passed away and their own mobility is perhaps restricted, many old people lead an isolated life among us. By arranging visiting partnerships, the association wants to give old people hope and courage to live - and enable younger people to get in touch with the older generation.
Your Tasks
In such a partnership, volunteers visit an elderly person at least once a month, usually in his or her home - just to talk, laugh, play games around or eat cake. More active "old friends" also have the opportunity to go for a walk or make small excursions.
We offer:
- Flexible time scheduling
- Involvement close to home
- Qualification and further training
- International integration
- Insurance cover
What's needed
- Clearance certificate
- Time for a monthly visit (regular and long-term - at least 1 year)
Time required
Important notice
