About the project

Living Together with Cerebral Palsy

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

This workcamp is a great opportunity for volunteers to understand how exactly is life with cerebral palsy (CP) while celebrating the common points rather than the difference. Participants will be working directly with CP affected people, helping them on the day-to-day basic tasks. Through leisure and educational activities, tourism and sports, all the workcamp members (with our without CP) will improve their physical, emotional and social competences.

💼 What the programme involves

Volunteers' tasks involve helping the organization's workers deal with the everyday tasks of CP affected people. Participants will support basic tasks like personal hygiene and meal times and also help organize and develop leisure activities - these can involve sports, leisure (also water) and educational activities and some outings to interesting places around. Disabled and non disabled participants will share all the available spaces: bedrooms, showers, dining room, etc.

🏠 Accommodation on site

The rooms will be shared with the disabled participants. Food will be provided by the house staff because of the intense type of work.

📍 About the location

On the outskirts of Barcelona.

⚠️ Requirements

It’s necessary to send us a certificate of sexual nature crimes that provides evidence of the lack of sexual crimes. Please don't forget to bring a sleeping bag, a white t-shirt and something to eat typical of your country that you can share with others.

ℹ️ Additional information

Please have in mind that volunteers in this camp should have a special sensibility to work with every type of people. You will be all together during the entire week and this requires patience and dedication.
