Ubytovanie, strava a doprava
Volunteers are living in 1 flat that is owned by the association and two flats are rented close to the association. In each volunteer has his/her own room. Flats are very close to the most of PSONI centres so it's not a big distance to work. Flats are located in Gdańsk Przymorze very close to the Baltic Sea and 30 min by tram to the Gdańsk old town. Volunteers also get food money and they are responsible for organizing it by themselves. All volunteers have free transport for trams and buses in Gdańsk for work and private time.

Profil účastníka
PSONI Gdansk is open to working with everyone who is open-minded and motivated to work on a project that meets her/his expectation. We always try to find a volunteer specifically for the project, but if a volunteer finds the project by himself we will host him. We are also open to host volunteers who have some difficulties with language and support them before the project. We are happy if the volunteer has previous experience in voluntary work with intellectually disabled people but that's not necessary. Its also if volunteer can organize activities to disabled people by him/her self.
