The Arthur Regniers Center hosts persons suffering of a cerebral and motor handicaps. The volunteers will mostly attend to the basic needs of the children of the Center (helping with the meals, cleaning, going to the toilets…) but will also participate in the setting up of artistic and cultural activities, with the Center’s staff. They will also be able to suggest their own activities.
ACCOMODATION:
in the Centre.
LOCATION:
Bienne-lez-Happart is a very small town near Binche, Mons and Charleroi. The Center itself is quite isolated in the countryside but bicycles and a car are at the volunteers’ disposal*. They can be used in the evenings or in the weekends, to visit the region and visit other places in Belgium.
*Please bring your crash helmet and your driver’s license, if possible.
REMARKS :
This workcamp is for motivated volunteers. The Center is quite isolated, and the work can be challenging.
An average knowledge of French is required, as activities will be conducted with children…who do not speak any English ;)
« I would recommend participating in a workcamp, especially with VAP, who ensured that I found a project to suit me and provided essential training for me in preparation for my trip. Being part of a workcamp really is a life-changing experience, oh, and it looks great on your CV! »
