📝 Detailed information

💼 What the programme involves

Knowing to speak Spanish is an essential requirement in this project. If you don’t comply this requirement, please don’t apply to this offer. Volunteers will do community service in several organizations during 12 weeks. We want two volunteers who enjoy with our oldest students in their community work. Mainly, the two volunteers will take part in the morning’s activities of an organization that works with people with disabilities. During the free time, they will play different games and spend time talking with their users. Three days a week, they will be part of a retirement home and will help during the memory activities with games, doing crafts, rehabilitation, among others. In the school, during the weekends, Friday afternoon and Saturdays, volunteers will be part of the free time groups of the school which includes kids from 8 to 11 years old. Sundays and Mondays are free for volunteers to rest, go sightseeing and visit the city.

🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers will use the school installations. The school is quite big, we have 1.600 students and lot of people working in there. It’s a Christian organization and one of the parts of the school building is intended for religious people who are living there. In this part, there are two rooms destinated to the CES volunteers. The school has an open dining service to enjoy the meals with the people who work in the school and with the religious community. Bilbao is a student city, adapted to move by bike to everywhere. The centre of the city is only 10 minutes walking from the school.

ℹ️ Additional information

The project is implemented under the European Solidarity Corps Programme, financed by the European Commission.
The participating organisations have to be mindful of these needs as they are responsible for providing a respectful and trusting hosting environment. At the same time, the organisations participating in the initiative devote a great deal of time, energy and resources to set up a high-quality activity; they should therefore expect that European Solidarity Corps participants show a similar level of respect for the local communities and the people that are directly concerned by the activities (https://youth.europa.eu/solidarity/mission_en).
