We have the following routes available:  

• • Lollum, Franeker – Leeuwarden
  • Kollumerzwaag – Leeuwarden
  • Lollum, Sneek– Leeuwarden
  • Leeuwarden 
  • Harlingen – Leeuwarden

Are you the one we are looking for or would you like more information?
Then send an email to: antje.modderman@kwadrant.nl

Use of the organisation’s car is strictly for the journey; if you use your own car, you will receive an allowance of €0.35 per km.

In addition, you will be invited to take part in activities at Oorizon; you can decide for yourself whether you wish to participate. During the festive season, you will receive a Christmas hamper from the organisation, and you will also be invited to a thank-you evening.

As this concerns deaf and hard-of-hearing clients, this will be given special attention in advance, and there will be a meeting once or twice a year with the small group of volunteers involved with Oorizon.

The passengers being transported are elderly people who are deaf or hard of hearing; some of them use a rollator or walking stick.

It is important to be considerate of the client when communicating, by speaking to them in a calm manner. 
It is important, however, that you make eye contact with clients and speak clearly; this is very important for the client.

In addition, staff are asked to be helpful and to show respect towards the client.
