📝 Detailed information
🏢 About the local organisation
Description: Hostalric is a village in Catalonia with around 4000 residents. This work camp was held in 2015 and it was a success. It was also in 2016 and so it will happen
again in 2017 aiming at the research, dissemination, preservation of the natural and historic heritage; intercultural exchange between the volunteers and villagers; creating awareness for local residents and neighbours about how important it is to value cultural heritage and also get to know volunteers from all over the world.
💼 What the programme involves
The volunteers will work on the cleaning up of a castle: two rooms, a little water cistern and an exploratory drilling sample.
🏠 Accommodation on site
Volunteers will sleep in bunkbeds in the gymnasium of the local high-school, where they will have access to 10 showers (5 per men and 5 per women) and
regular toilets. They will also dispose of a kitchen, a big garden, a basketball field, a football field, within many other spaces.
📍 About the location
Village northeast of Barcelona.
Yes, it is close to Barcelona, but please don't apply if it only makes you think about sangria and discoballs! Volunteering is a serious commitment and it needs to be taken as such.
⚠️ Requirements
Bed sheets, pillow sheets and bathroom towels. Extra information will be send once registered.
ℹ️ Additional information
To deepen the contact between the volunteers and the territory, they will also participate on several activities of the village summer festival, a local food workshop and tours around the area.
