Will you help us cook at our meeting place for local residents?

The Meeting:

The meeting place is located in the Matenhof residential care center in the Matengaarde. All residents of Apeldoorn are very welcome. For example, people who are lonely and seek companionship. Various activities are offered during the week, such as creative activities, walking, games, flower arranging, training and courses. We also offer a hot meal from Monday to Friday. The local resident can then eat along for a small fee. Lunch is served every Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday. The group is supervised by 2 care professionals and is supported by volunteers.

What do we ask?

We are looking for volunteers for Monday and Friday who like to support weekly cooking / preparing the hot food at the diner. The times are from 15:30-19:30 but can also be shorter in consultation. The group consists of a maximum of 16 participants. The volunteer stands together with 2 healthcare professionals, who are all allowed to eat. We are looking for volunteers who have an affinity with preparing food and/or who can be a conversation partner for the participants. It concerns light supporting tasks, such as; preparing food, serving coffee, setting tables or rinsing the dishes. Would you like to meet?
