As a board member, you reopen the Alzheimer's Meeting Point Wageningen together with another board member, support volunteers and maintain contacts.
What are you going to do?
Your primary task, together with the current board member, is to ensure that as much attention as possible is paid to people with dementia and knowledge about dealing with dementia in Wageningen. As a result, you, together with the other board members, make an important contribution to a more dementia-friendly society. You coordinate the reopening of the Alzheimer Meeting Point Wageningen, support the volunteers, maintain contacts within the municipality and other welfare organizations in Wageningen. In particular, good contact with Odensehuis Wageningen, Welsaam and the Wageningen dementia-friendly project and the management of our department are important.
What do we have to offer you?
What can you expect from Alzheimer Nederland? You will end up in a warm, professional organization and work together with a group of enthusiastic and committed people. Everyone works with unprecedented enthusiasm for the same goal. We do this from a good basis, because we think it is important that you can enjoy working. We offer information about dementia and various training courses that match your position. We organize networking meetings between departments and with colleagues at the national office and we take your voice in policy seriously. Naturally, we reimburse travel and expenses and practical matters such as insurance are arranged.
The time spent may differ per week. Assume approximately 4 hours per week.
So are you someone who:
· Do you care about people with Dementia and their caregivers?
· Can plan and organize well?
· Want to be the driving and connecting force behind a group of volunteers?
· Have a relevant network or enjoy building one?
· Do you have approximately 4 hours available per week?
Then this is a position that would suit you well. And if you would like to know more, we would be happy to get in touch with you!
