Volunteer wanted: quiet male buddy (40+) for fun activities

Are you a quiet, committed man aged 40 or over and do you enjoy socialising, cycling and the occasional outdoor café? Besides, do you like supporting someone's self-confidence and independence? Then we are looking for you!

About the man

You will go out with a friendly and social man with mild intellectual disability and autism. Clarity, structure and predictability are very important to him. With a calm and reliable buddy, he feels at ease and can enjoy fine activities together.

What will you do?

- Cycling or walking together
- Grab a terrace
- Cooking or talking about food together (e.g. Japanese cuisine)
- Possibly meet animals or do something with animals
- Quiet and predictable contact moments

- A man aged 40 or over
- Someone who is calm, clear and patient
- Someone who likes structure and keeps appointments
- Someone who enjoys simple, cosy moments together
- A buddy who enjoys cycling and occasional sidewalk cafes
