🏠 Accommodation on site

Volunteers at Kaprálův mlýn live in a self-contained house for volunteers only. This two-storey house stands on a site with a beautiful view only 50 m away from the main centre building. The house offers all the possibilities of a full and comfortable life - fully equipped kitchen, living room with projector for movie nights, terrace... You can either arrange your own meals or use our excellent kitchen, which cooks typical Czech food 3 times a day almost every day of the week. You will have a permanent public transport ticket, that you can use to explore the area.

🎒 Leisure activities

You are expected to participate in three main ESC trainings. The first should be held by your sending organization before departure from your country. The second and the third ones are organized by Czech National Agency in Czech Republic. It is usually 4 - 6 days full of fun, where you meet a lot of new friends - foreign volunteers from other Czech workplaces.

⚠️ Requirements

The Participant profile: We are looking for volunteers with a love of nature, outdoor activities and a positive attitude towards environmental issues. We need you to speak English (communicative level). We don't require any additional knowledge, we will teach you everything. However, if you have an idea or a hobby that you would like to contribute to the development of the education centre, all the better, but it is not an obligation.

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).
