creative volunteer for daytime activities

A number of older people with intellectual disabilities live at Zijpenberg 17, some of whom have already retired and are therefore often at home. That is why we offer them daytime activities at home in the mornings. We could use some help with this, so that there is enough attention for everyone. It concerns Monday to Friday mornings from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Even if it is not possible every day or week, we would like to get in touch with you.

This is us:

A nice group of 8 older people who live together in a group home at Zijpenberg 17 in De Meern. Old age comes with flaws, they say, which means that some of us also have a bit of mobility and use a walker or wheelchair. The home and care is part of 's Heeren Loo, an organization that offers care and support to children and adults with disabilities (mentally, physically, etc.). Guidance is available 24 hours a day.

This is you:

You think it is important that every person has an involved social network, regardless of possibilities or way of experiencing it. You come to visit and are completely focused on the other person, have a cup of coffee together and help with the daytime activities with a game of crafts or an exercise activity. You bring all kinds of creative ideas and together with the guidance you think about how to shape this for the elderly.
