Voluntary emergency service/informal care assistant

Weekly · 1 to 4 hours

Welzijn Bloemendaal

Would you like to do something for or with the elderly? Elderly people who register with us are often looking for company. They have a small network and feel lonely. Many people enjoy doing activities together with a volunteer. For example: walking or cycling, drinking a cup of coffee somewhere. Or offering a listening ear. Based on your interests and possibilities, we will match you with a permanent person seeking help. We really look for the right match and take the wishes of you and the person seeking help into account. If you make contact easily and enjoy helping an elderly person in consultation on a fixed day/time, then this might be something for you. For further information please contact Monique Coffeng.

Looking for a buddy for a sweet 89 year old lady

Weekly · 2 to 4 hours

I am looking for a buddy for a sweet lady in Molenwijk who would like to visit this lady once every 2 weeks. The lady rarely goes outside and therefore needs to have a nice chat with someone who, like her, has a positive outlook on life. The lady would also like to be able to go for a short walk with a buddy or go shopping together. Lady walks with a walker. Mrs. loves reading and has always sung in a choir. Who would like to pay this sweet lady a visit every now and then? You agree together when and how often you will visit. If you have some time to spare and could bring some fun into this lady's life, I would love to hear from you. Yours sincerely, Thea Coordinator Humanitas South Kennemerland

Offer a listening ear?

Monthly · 1 to 5 hours

Do you often hear that you are a good listener? Then volunteering at the Listening Line might be something for you. As a volunteer at the Listening Line, you offer a listening ear to people with concerns, sadness or problems. People often feel alone. You are there for the other person by listening, asking questions and organizing thoughts. You do this anonymously, by telephone or chat. We receive more than 500,000 calls every year. The need for an anonymous listening ear is greater than ever. What does it get you? - You will receive professional training in conversation and listening skills. This training period takes approximately 3 months and is experienced by other volunteers as fascinating, but also as intensive. - You will receive guidance and support from our professionals at any time - You participate in inspiring meetings on topics such as loneliness, loss and depression. - You have fascinating conversations that are not only meaningful to the other person, but also to you. - You are part of a close-knit team of volunteers What do you give? - You listen without judgement, which requires an open and eager to learn attitude. We therefore think it is important that you are open to learning, reflecting and receiving feedback on your performance. - On average you work 4 hours per week. This can be one 4-hour shift or two 2-hour shifts, at a time and place that suits you. - The need for conversation is greatest at night. Once a month you do a 4-hour shift or 2 2-hour shifts. Do you want to mean something to someone else? Are you involved? Do you want to further develop your listening and conversation skills? Do you have enough time in your agenda and space in your head and heart? Then we would like to meet you!

Italian or Spanish chat buddy

Once · 0 to 1 hours

Hello! I am a 63 year old lady from Venezuela. I have lived in Italy for more than 20 years and since January I have been living with my daughter in Schalkwijk. I speak Spanish and Italian and would like to learn the Dutch language over time. For now I'm looking for a buddy who I can talk to in Spanish or Italian. It would be nice to have a little more authority and to give my days a little more meaning. I also really like walking, so it would be nice to take a walk together every now and then. Are you or do you know someone who can keep me company? I like to hear it! Thanks in advance!

Cook volunteer

Cruquiushoeve/Sein

We do various cooking activities every month with our clients with disabilities and epilepsy, with the help of volunteers and a permanent professional. We make a 3-course menu and a different theme every month, after which we eat this together. It concerns 1 or 2 times a month between 5 and 9 p.m. Patience and being clear is useful with our residents, in addition, some cooking experience is desired.

Do you want to make progress with me?

De Hartekampgroep

Long walks, that's what I like to do. In the forest or through the dunes. I'm in good shape. And I think it would be wonderful to enjoy the walk with you. Away from my busy living group. I don't talk much, usually answer yes or no. If you want to chat, that's okay, but it's not necessary. I also don't need a conversation, it is sometimes difficult to understand and that makes me restless. Just go for a walk, that's what I want. I have time after 4 p.m. on weekdays and all weekend. I hope you'll want to travel with me on a regular basis. My supervisors will train you. HP9-15

Walking through the estate De Hartekamp

De Hartekampgroep

The beautiful De Hartekamp Estate is owned by the De Hartekamp Groep Foundation. There is a beautiful care residential area for people with intellectual disabilities. On Sunday afternoon there is a group of volunteers who walk with a number of clients who live on this site. Living in a beautiful residential area is nice and even nicer if you can go outside regularly. Do you come twice a month to make this possible? Also very nice to do with a friend, your partner, sports buddy or maybe with your son or daughter? There is an app group with the volunteers. Can't you do it once or is the weather really bad? Then you discuss the alternatives together. Sunday: 14:00 (preferably 2x a month)

We'll have a party on Wednesday evening

De Hartekampgroep

The best evening of the week. An enthusiastic group of volunteers is ready for us to make it an enjoyable hour. We, clients who live on the grounds of the Hartekamp, like to go to the Orangery. We chat, drink coffee, buy a delicious cookie and make fun, creative things. But they could use some help with that. They are not complicated pieces because we want to take them home the same evening. And the most creative volunteer has already done a lot of preparation. One week it's creative, the next week it's listening to music, dancing and chatting. We ask volunteers for enthusiasm, interest and of course to keep your appointments. Some volunteers also help with picking up and returning us. That's only a 5 minute walk. When: Wednesday from 6:30 PM - 8:30 PM. If you can come and help every other week, that's also nice. And there is no club during the school holidays, so you can go out yourself. Knowing more? The leisure and volunteer coordinator would like to tell you more and you are always welcome to come and test run.
