In this volunteer trip project in Barcelona, volunteers will assist centres that serve children, adolescents and adults with physical and mental disabilities.
The centres provide many young people and adults with mental and physical stimulation to improve their quality of life.
Volunteer will work alongside a team of local staff and participate in specific activities, primarily related to arts and crafts, physical therapy, exercise, and activities such as swimming or walking with dogs.
Even if you don't focus on day-to-day operations such as food preparation, meal service, cleaning or personal hygiene, you should be prepared to help when it's really needed.
This humanitarian trip is well suited to compassionate and patient people. You will work closely with local staff.
During your project in Barcelona, you will be staying in a hostel located in a quiet neighborhood, just 30 minutes away from the city center.
In the vicinity, you will find everything you need: local cafes, supermarkets, ATMs, pharmacies, and other public services. The hostel is a 5-minute walk from the metro station, and the airport is approximately 5 km away.
Accommodation is in shared rooms in a sustainable and social hostel (private rooms are also available for an additional cost).
Every day, local-style breakfasts and lunches will be served from Monday to Friday. Vegetarian, gluten-free, and lactose-free meals are also available upon request.
