Informal care in Halderberge municipality
Many people care for a family member, friend or neighbor. They help and support with housekeeping, personal care, transportation, money matters and so on. You have a personal bond with each other. Informal care is very valuable and that is why Mantelzorg Halderberge helps you, so that your life stays in balance.

Informal care: ‘Throw open your cloak, make your concerns visible’.
Informal care is often unrecognized - not by the environment, but especially not by the informal caregiver himself. The mantle symbolizes everything that comes with care: warmth, sense of duty, fatigue, loyalty. Sometimes it feels comfortable, sometimes it weighs heavily on your shoulders. Surplus invites people to “throw open” that cloak - to make care visible and find recognition. Because by sharing it, the burden is already lightened a little bit. We like to open the conversation about informal care further - within families, neighborhoods and municipalities.
Campaign from.love
If you are a caregiver, you do it out of love. For the other person, because you give. Because you love. Because you love. Because the other person is important to you. So you care. out.of.love. You express love through those little moments, by being there AND helping. But when does your own love go out? Are you momentarily no longer loving yourself or the other? Do you express yourself then? Out of your love. For yourself. For the other person. Because you do it, out of love. In the out.of.love campaign, four family caregivers tell their stories in the out.of.love podcast.
Yara
Yara is a caregiver for her 19-year-old sister. She has Dravet syndrome, which makes her both mentally and physically disabled and suffers from seizures. She cares for her out of love, but sometimes that love is out for a while. You can listen to her whole story in the podcast.
Anton
Anton is a caregiver for both his mother and his wife, who is dependent on his care for many things due to her severe rheumatism. He does this out of love, but sometimes that love is out - especially when Anton then no longer gets around to doing things for himself. You can listen to his whole story in the podcast.
Thea
Thea is a caregiver for her two sons, both of whom have Leigh syndrome. This is an intense metabolic disease in which brain cells are damaged because they do not get enough energy. Thea is a caregiver out of love, but sometimes the love is out for a while. You can listen to her whole story in the podcast.
Simone
Simone is a caregiver for both her mother and her mother-in-law, both of whom have dementia. For Simone, this is no problem at all, because her parents were always there for her, too. She does it out of love, but sometimes that love is also out for a while. You can listen to her whole story in the podcast.
