Volunteer with the Red Cross in Portugal
Cruz Vermelha Portuguesa- Delegação de Cucujães
Vila de Cucujães, Oliveira de Azeméis, Portugal
Descrição
Volunteers support a range of activities, including logistics at the Food Bank, transportation services for people who need assistance, and basic maintenance of Red Cross spaces. The work takes place across several settings in Vila de Cucujães (a rural village in Northern Portugal) including also elderly nursing home, rehabilitation centre, primary school permaculture farm, pilgrim shelter, disability support centre, and local environmental initiatives. Tasks are varied and hands-on/ practical. This role suits people who prefer staying active and working with their hands rather than sitting behind a desk.
Comparticipação nas despesas de alojamento, alimentação e transporte
Volunteers share a fully equipped apartment within walking distance of work locations. The apartment includes Wi-Fi, bedding, towels, and kitchen equipment. Each volunteer receives 330€ per month for food and personal expenses, full health insurance, and transport support when needed. Living conditions are simple. Life in the village encourages independence and a more outdoor-based routine
Formação durante a atividade
You will receive practical, on-the-job training and guidance from the Portuguese Red Cross Staff Team, as well as national ESC training sessions. An online Portuguese language course is provided, along with opportunities to learn additional practical skills depending on your interests and initiative.
