Piet is looking for contact (E507)

Gerard (65) and Marieke (59) are a couple from Luyksgestel who are mainly looking for a buddy to participate in outdoor activities. Gerard is paralyzed on one side as a result of a congenital brain injury and is hypersensitive to light. Gerard likes to be inside his own home, but has a mobility scooter to move around outside. Marieke does the shopping for the couple and does this by bicycle for as long as it goes. Gerard and Marieke would like to go outside more often with a buddy. Think, for example, of the Aquinohuis in Bergeijk, doing an errand together or just going for a walk in the neighbourhood. If you are the person who can help Gerard and Marieke on their way 1x a week, then they will be helped a lot!

Hi new friend! (B23)

Hi! I'm glad you read my call. I am looking for a volunteer, someone to do things with me. My name is Lucas and I am 12 years old. I live in Bergeijk with my parents. I go to school by taxi five days a week. I have been diagnosed with autism. For me, this means that I find it difficult to deal with changes and that I am not very good at dealing with stimuli. At least… I find it annoying when a lot comes unexpectedly at the same time. In addition, I am sometimes insecure because I am afraid that I am not always doing things right. But other than that I am very helpful and friendly. My parents call me a "sweet boy". Unfortunately I don't have that many peers that I have contact with and I would really like that. I like music very much and like to play outside with my “walkie talkies” for example. Swimming is also a great hobby of mine. On television I watch Neighbor and Neighbor, Paw patrol and Checkpoint. Oh yes, which might be good to know: I really don't like people dressed up like clowns. Do you want to meet me? Please contact MEE LiNCK. My parents like to meet your parents before I see you, but I'm really looking forward to it!

Exploring Veldhoven with Peter from '59 (VE57)

“Hi, my name is Peter (pseudonym). I was born in 1959 and live in Veldhoven. I live independently in an apartment thanks to good home care. If I may describe myself, I am someone who is social and friendly, speaks civilized Dutch, is enthusiastic and loves music. I'm a fan of Bruce Springsteen, but I also love all kinds of pop music. I certainly enjoy music from my youth immensely. Once a week I go swimming and exercise. I find it difficult to activate myself, I don't always have something to do and I spend a lot of time indoors. That's why I'm looking for someone who can give me the support to go outside, cycling or walking. I don't know Veldhoven that well anymore since all the changes and would like to explore it or other beautiful places here or in the area. Listening to music or playing board games is also fine from time to time, depending on the weather or my mood. I have a somewhat lower IQ and take medication to prevent psychological complaints. I would like to meet someone for some social variety, activation, relaxation and fun. Would you like to help me in this area? Please contact MEE.”

Spirituality and sociability (VE58)

Weekly · 0 to 2 hours

“Hello everyone, my name is Anneke and I am 67 years old. Due to physical complaints I spend a large part of the time in bed. You can imagine that I am often alone. I would like it if I could (weekly) get in touch with someone who is in for some fun and a chat. My greatest passion is spirituality, but actually I am someone who is all-round interested in things. So that area is very large. Because I spend a lot of time in bed, I am housebound and it would be nice if someone could come to me. I could meet on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday or Saturday afternoon. Very occasionally I have just a little more energy and I can take a little detour, but this really depends on the day and my physical condition and will not happen very often. Would you like to get in touch with me? Please contact MEE and maybe we will have an appointment soon.”

Buddy for the musical Floor (VE63)

Monthly · 1 to 3 hours

Hello, my name is Floor. I live in Veldhoven with my husband and 6-year-old son. I am a cheerful and friendly woman of 34 years old and I am looking for social contact. Because it is a bit more difficult for me to learn, things sometimes go a little slower for me than for someone else. I am very musical. I like playing guitar and singing. In addition, I also enjoy shopping, I go to Zumba twice a week and I do diamond painting. I now work in the hospitality industry as a waitress. I do this 2 days a week and I really enjoy doing it. I am a real fun person. As you can see I have a wide area of interest, only I sometimes miss social contact. I would prefer to get in touch with someone who also has a child so that I can chat about it. I can say this to my friends, but they don't have children of their own yet, so this sometimes makes it less fun for me. Would you like to get in touch with me and become a volunteer with me? To start, I would like to meet monthly or once every two weeks. If the click is so good, this can of course be done more often, in consultation. Will I see you soon? Contact MEE LiNCK quickly.

Babysitting help for Marieke's family (VE67)

Hi, my name is Marieke, mother of 5 sweet kids, living in Veldhoven. Together, with my husband, we have 7 children. A busy but pleasant and fun family. The children I am going to talk about now concern my 4 youngest children. Sammie (8 years), Job (4 years), Leah (1 year) and Gijsje (8 months). My husband works and I take care of the children. You can imagine that it can sometimes be quite busy. That's why I'm asking you this question now. I regularly have appointments with my children, but I cannot take them everywhere. It is also not very useful if, for example, I have to pay close attention to what is being said. That's why I'm looking for someone who would enjoy spending a morning (Monday, Wednesday or Thursday) with my children once a week. Playing, making a drink, giving a bottle or changing a diaper, for example. So that I can leave the house with peace of mind. Would you like to get to know us?

Where meeting is temporarily not possible, we try to contact each other online. That also turns out to be possible!

Looking for a buddy for Leo (E506)

Hi! My name is Leo (55 yrs) and I am a cheerful and positive man. I am a big PSV fan and love to travel. Unfortunately, due to a muscle disease, I am wheelchair dependent and I notice that I am home alone a lot. That's why I'm looking for someone to chat with and have a drink, to get a new perspective on things. I also enjoy an occasional outing or helping out in the garden! I have a van, so if you have a driver's license, we can go out with it if you want. Would you like to get acquainted? Then contact MEE!

Sweet babysitter wanted for Koen van 4 (E508)

Weekly · 2 to 2 hours

Hello volunteers, Koen's parents are looking for a sweet, caring babysitter (f) for Koen on Friday evening, Saturday or Sunday for 2 hours. Koen is a sweet 4 year old boy with an autism spectrum disorder. Koen cannot (yet) speak and requires a lot of attention and direction. He is sweet and sociable in dealing with other people, laughs a lot and is all in all a very happy child. Koen loves to play outside and likes to climb and clamber. In bad weather, he can enjoy himself with an indoor activity such as watching cartoons. Koen has a twin sister, but Koen demands the most attention. Parents would therefore be very happy to spend a little more time with their daughter during the weekend. Do you want to contribute to this family and would you like to play with Koen for 2 hours in the weekends? Then we'd love to hear from you!

Music, running and museums! (BL32)

Monthly · 2 to 4 hours

Dear reader, my name is Ruud, I am 53 years old and I live in Hapert. I am a friendly man with a wide range of interests that I like to share with others. Because I still see less than 5 percent, it is difficult to take on new things. This means that I am at home a lot. I love playing guitar and singing. From Queen to Tina Turner and from Lionel Richie to Simon and Garfunkel. How nice would it be to be able to do this with someone? I am also sporty. I exercise and like to run (or walk). I've done this with someone before. We held on to a rope through which I felt where I was running and was walking like 8-9 km per hour! I also like to visit museums where things about history can be seen and read. Because someone describes what can be seen and reads the text, I can imagine it. Do you want to get in touch with me? Then contact MEE.
