A NEW HOUSE FOR THE ASSOCIATION

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

For 9 years, the association Vir´Volt has been based in the city of la Ferté-sous-Jouarre and has created many local animations, including international workcamps. The association has created an international camping site with different accommodations (yurts, tipis, trailers...) The association is now moving some of its activities to another local town, Saacy-sur-Marne, which is 8 km from La-Ferté-sous-Jouarre. The association will host international volunteers in a house provided by the town. The house needs to be renovated before hosting a new team of volunteers.

💼 What the programme involves

During the workcamp, you will work along other members of the association in order to renovate the house, especially the bedrooms. The work will consist in some construction work as well as painting work. The last week of the workcamp will also be dedicated to undoing and moving some of the accommodations of the association on La Ferté sous Jouarre site. You will be guided by a professionnal technical leader.

🏠 Accommodation on site

In collective tents on the campsite of the association. Please bring a sleeping bag.

📍 About the location

You will have the chance to enjoy the association's campsite and to discover the cultural and natural heritage of the region which is home to the Brie cheese. You will also be given the opportunity to meet and socialise with other members of the association, as well as some participants to a European Youth Exchange taking place at the same time. Other leisure activities will be organised collectively depending on the wishes of the group and the available budget.
