Summary
Berend likes to have a chat and would like it if someone came to visit once every 14 days.Detailed description
Who is Berend?
Berend is a 65 year old man with a mild intellectual disability. Berend lives in an apartment near the center of Apeldoorn and receives the help he needs 24 hours a day. He likes to chat, about things like the past and Apeldoorn. He likes watching TV and is interested in trucks. He sits in a wheelchair, which he can move within the house himself. He is helped on longer distances.
He is hearing impaired and wears 2 hearing aids.
What does Berend ask?
Berend is looking for a volunteer who would like to visit for an hour once every 14 days. Someone with whom he can chat about the past and who knows Apeldoorn a little. This talk often only lasts fifteen minutes. When the weather is nice, a walk with Berend is also very nice, with perhaps a visit to the snack bar nearby.
If you come, he will really appreciate it. The day and frequency can be agreed upon.
