Let's create a space for relaxation: inclusion and interaction!

Descrição

Meet children and teenagers who are invisible in our society. Together, break down the barriers of disability and enjoy an enriching human experience! You will be welcomed at the Institut Médico-Educatif (IME) Jean-Louis Pirel, located in the small town of Veyre-Monton. This institute takes in children and teenagers with intellectual disabilities. You will be working alongside them and their educators throughout the project. Your aim will be to create a space for relaxation and interaction for the teenagers and young adults at the IMPro. To do this, you'll be building a wooden deck as well as wooden modules of various sizes so that the young people can sit down, rest or play board games. You will spend around thirty hours a week on this project. Working alongside a technical coordinator, you'll be able to learn or improve your tool handling skills and take part in a range of manual tasks.

Comparticipação nas despesas de alojamento, alimentação e transporte

You will be accompanied by two camp leaders throughout your stay. You will be accommodated in a tent in the neighbouring commune of Les Martres-de-Veyre, with access to sanitary facilities and showers nearby. You'll have access to a multi-purpose room with kitchen facilities for meals and relaxation. The group will be sharing the cleaning chores and preparing meals together. The budget will be allocated to the group leader and you will participate in the preparation of meals, prioritising products from the market and local producers.
