Activity Description:
Volunteers will work in a residential facility for children and youths with disabilities, assisting them in everyday life to help them live as normally as possible and participate in society.
Residents live independently, each having their own room.
Volunteers will support the care staff in various activities, including leisure activities, household chores, assistance with eating, shopping, cooking, and help with everyday activities.
Support in personal development and becoming independent is a crucial aspect of the volunteer’s role.
Depending on age and disability, residents may need assistance with light physical activities such as walks and mobilization.

They will receive 7 Euro/day as pocket money, a public transport ticket reimbursement of 49€/month, a food fee of 313€/month, and a financial contribution to travel costs.
