What challenge are you taking on? “Do you like cooking with a group?” As a cooking volunteer you do the shopping for the meal, you have free choice in the menu, but the best part is if this is done in consultation with the group of 9 clients. You get weekly shopping money. Some clients help with meal preparation. You know how to give everyone the attention they need. The volunteer provides fun, a relaxed atmosphere and eats with the group. The aim is to prepare clients for an independent life outside GGZ Rivierduinen. It is possible to cook together with a partner. In that case, you apply together as a cooking team. We are looking for cooking volunteers for Tuesday to Friday from 3:30 PM - 6:30 PM. If you like to cook with a partner, register together. Why are you going to make a difference? We are looking for volunteers who feel involved with people with a psychiatric background. Our clients have normal intelligence and a special disability or obstacle. It is difficult for them to build and maintain a social network on their own. You make an important contribution to the recovery of our clients when you want to volunteer for a person or a department for some time. What do we offer you? The volunteer will have a permanent contact person in the department. As a volunteer you participate in the starters meeting. During this meeting we discuss the role of the volunteer. You will receive information about some psychiatric conditions and you will learn how to deal with people with psychiatric problems. Volunteers do not receive any compensation for their activity. The travel expenses you incur to get to the location where you work will be reimbursed. In order to do volunteer work, we will apply for a Certificate of Good Conduct for you. You are insured during the activities. More information: Interested in this vacancy? Please contact one of the volunteer affairs coordinators.
