About the volunteering opportunity

Care and support for senior citizens

Your Tasks

You support older people with simple everyday tasks and decide flexibly which activities you are available for, e.g:

  • Doing the shopping
  • Accompanying people to appointments
  • Technical support
  • Help with household tasks
  • Accompanying people on walks / excursions
  • Assistance with gardening
  • Care & occupation

What's needed

For this volunteering opportunity, intermediate German skills are required.
You can register as a volunteer independently, free of charge and without obligation at https://www.deinnachbar.de/helfer-werden/. We will then have an intake interview where we can get to know each other.

You can take part in a free training course to become an everyday companion, which is voluntary. We recommend this, as it prepares you optimally for dealing with people in need of care and shows you how to relieve the burden on family caregivers. However, you will not be providing care, but caring activities.

Once you have registered and spoken to us, you can download the helper portal app and start your assignments with ease. You will only receive assignment requests that match your helper profile. You can use our helper app to easily accept or cancel these or search for jobs in your area yourself.

These assignments can be regular or spontaneous.
