About the volunteering opportunity
The comfortably furnished center on the first floor of the retirement home is a popular meeting place for older people. The conservatory café and chat room in Friedrichshain's Singerstrasse are the venue for regular events and activities such as singing, sport and exercise, culture and lectures. To enable more older and often lonely people with impaired mobility to take advantage of these offers, we are looking for people to help support them.
