💼 What the programme involves
The Marc Toussaint House is a lodging and day care center for disabled adults. The center is located in the suburbs of Reims, a city with more than 200,000 inhabitants with all the facilities.
The handicaps can be various and severe. Candidates have to know that it is usually a bit shocking at the beginning but after a short time, the experience is very enriching by learning how to communicate with them. The volunteer will take part in leisure activities such as handicrafts, computer workshops, snoezelen, outings, games, well being and adapted sport activities… He/She will work with another European volunteer, French volunteers and two activity leaders.
