A Visiting Buddy for an English Speaking Lady

Do you speak English? Then you might be the person we are looking for! We are looking for a kind and reliable volunteer to visit one of our residents at least once a week for a friendly chat and companionship.

Bringing conviviality and distraction. This gesture would mean the world to her — especially since there are currently no staff members at the Open Hof who can forfill this role. Your presence could truly make a difference in her life. Our resident would love to speak in her mother tongue.

What Skills or Qualifications Are Needed?
• A warm, empathetic personality and a listening ear
• A caring and helpful attitude
• A (good) command of the English language

What Do You Get in Return?
• You’ll be part of a welcoming team
• A rewarding environment with kind elderly residents and supportive colleagues
• Tokens of appreciation and fun volunteer gatherings
• Reimbursement of travel expenses (if applicable)
• Opportunities for training, personal initiative, and tailored support from a coordinator

What Is the Value of This Role?

Your weekly visit can greatly enhance the well-being and quality of life of an elderly person.
Loving attention truly makes a difference.

Working Hours:
Flexible — all days and time slots are open for discussion.
