Become a buddy
A buddy makes a difference
Would you like to mean something to another person, in a way that suits you? As a care volunteer, also known as a buddy, you make someone's day just a little brighter. You offer companionship, attention or practical help. And at a time that suits you.
Doing something together
People who need a buddy often have little contact. Some even feel really lonely. As a buddy, you take a walk together, run an errand or have a cup of coffee. It's all about human contact: time, attention and a listening ear. As a buddy, you also help someone get to know more people.
Even informal carers sometimes need a breather. As a care volunteer, you can temporarily take over their tasks so they can take a breather.
Flexible volunteering that suits you
You are always matched with someone who is a good fit for you. We make sure there is a click so that the contact is pleasant for both of you. You do not need to have any education or experience. More important is that you are reliable, keep your appointments and can empathise with others. Whether you are young or old, have a few free hours or want to do something more often, this is voluntary work in Lelystad that really suits your life.
