Resumo: Supporting to the Workshops in the Day Centre for people with intellectual disabilities

Perfil: There is no specific profile for the participation in this project.
Sensibility towards mental disabled people, open and participative character will be positively valued.

The presence of volunteers is always valued by professionals and users. It is important for our users to know about other cultures and get involved in them.

Specifically, we value:
- Willing to integrate actively, in the project and the community.
- Personal motivation and a positive spirit.
- Multiplying role, making themselves seen as Europeans participating in such a project.
- Personal contribution to the project. With ideas and suggestions of activities and enriching the project.

Tarefas: Volunteers will participate under the supervision of the supervisor, leaders and technicians.

--In SAN CEBRIAN DE CAMPOS:

The activities will be carried out in the Day Centre, for external and internal users.

Volunteers will carry out the following activities (always supporting staff members):

- Preparation and implementation of daily activities.
- Make the participation in communication workshop easier, promoting conversations and the exchange of experiences.
- Support carrying out manual work of workshops.
- Support in the dining-room when needed: distribution of food, help with cutlery,...
- Support with activities related with the use of community resources: outings, shopping,...

--In FROMISTA:

We plan the opening of a service for people with disabilities in the near future.
This would be formed by 2 integration flats to attend 8 people with disabilities. Voluntary tasks would be to support daily life skills and life in the community.

In any case, volunteers can suggest a personal project and will receive all support from us for it. This would be guided by their initiatives and supervised by the mentor and supervisor to manage the enrichment of volunteers and the organisation within the reality of the centres.
Punctually, volunteers may participate in leisure activities of the organisation in the Jacob's Way with the users, as well as during holidays (planned yearly, with 1 or 2 groups of users), consisting of 1 week at the coast.

In all cases the mentor and the supervisor will be their reference, as well as the staff they support daily. They will guide them about the service, their tasks and the activities, as well as the group they will participate with.

There will be no job substitution. Voluntary tasks are complementary and a support to staff.

Horário: Time of participation: from Monday to Friday, from 9 to 17:30 and a break in the morning and another one for lunch; language training is included in that time.
Free days: Saturday and Sunday, unless volunteers want to participate in leisure service on weekends (championships, camps,...) in which case the free days would be from Monday to Friday.
Holidays: 2 days per month of EVS service.

Condições: Volunteers will be hosted in a rented flat in Palencia, with the needed equipment and appropriate for the stay of volunteers.
The flat has 4 bedrooms, WC, toilet, kitchen and living-room.
Lunch will be offered in our dining-rooms, with the staff members, and we will establish an allowance to cover costs of dinner and lunch on weekends and holidays.

Activities will always be guided and supervised by the mentor and supervisor of the project.
A basic training in this subject contemplating potential risks in the workshop and in everyday life, will be provided. This training will be conducted by the nurse of the Foundation and will include basic notions of first aid, procedures in specific cases, such as epilepsy.

The volunteers will also be handed the protocols for acting in case of an emergency, as well as a list of phone numbers for emergency services. We will also inform them about how to use the AXA insurance (doctor, reimbursement of bills,...).

The telephone from the Centre in San Cebrian de Campos is in operation 24 hours, so the professionals of the centre can be contacted at any time.

Formação: Our main aim is still the improvement of the quality of life of our residents and their families.

As an added value, this project will favour an enrichment of the professionals, users and local and European volunteers. This means intercultural learning for the volunteer and our entity.

The European volunteers will enable cultural exchange and a positive encouragement through their new ideas, complementary or alternative methods and the needed motivation.

This social project will offer volunteers the chance of knowing other realities and improve skills related with social relations in a collaboration atmosphere between users and volunteers and volunteers and professionals working with us.

We can show volunteers working methodologies in specific programmes and for the daily work with our users. We are also open to receive suggestions related with previous experience of volunteers with this collective.

We also offer the chance of acquiring social experiences and abilities promoting solidarity and youth participation in the field of integration. Accepting and respecting a specific reality often comes from knowing that reality.

We will favour community relations, not only in the towns of the project:
- San Cebrián de Campos, small town where the presence of a European volunteer does not go unnoticed.

- Fromista, where we have a supervised flat and the reality of the programme is known through the participation of young volunteers in programmes managed by the City Council of Fromista.

Community relations will also be promoted in Palencia, showing them the leisure and cultural alternatives.

Volunteers will receive a basic, initial training:
- About our organisation: structure, reality,...
- Skills related with daily tasks of voluntary actions.
- Language training, adapted to the level of volunteers, with a private teacher.

The coordinator will continuously supervise the development of the project in collaboration with the mentor. Conflict solving, monitoring of activities and tasks will be done by the coordinator and the mentor.
