Helping people in need. That's what the Red Cross stands for. With the largest volunteer aid network in the world, we are ready to help those who need us most. We respond to disasters, conflicts and emergencies. With national societies in 191 countries, we are always close by. Also in the Netherlands we are ready for action. About 10,000 volunteers and 106,000 people in our civil aid network Ready2Help are committed to helping people in need. Has a fire broke out in a flat? We take care of the residents. Sprain your ankle during a race? Chances are you will meet our emergency workers at the first aid post. Want to know what to do if your child chokes? Our first aid app and first aid courses offer help. Want to know more about what we do, and how you can help? Check out rodekruis.nl.

‘A Rivierduin has traditionally been a place where people seek shelter and feel safer.’ GGZ Rivierduinen provides mental health care to people of all ages with serious psychological complaints and their loved ones. Our 2,100 colleagues provide care to approximately 15,000 clients in the municipalities in the regions of Alphen aan den Rijn, Duin- en Bollenstreek, Gouda, Leiden, Leidschendam, and Zoetermeer. Rivierduinen includes out patient clinics, community teams, acute care, clinics, residential wards, day activities, and a specialist department for eating disorders. Our work begins with understanding. Understanding that life is not always easy. We have extensive experience and expertise in caring for the elderly, adults, adolescents, and children who struggle daily with multiple psychiatric problems. The goal of treatment is to reduce psychological complaints, make them more bearable, and enable acceptance, so that clients can maintain control over their own lives. We choose to apply our knowledge and expertise where we can make the greatest collective contribution to recovery: namely, with those seeking help and their loved ones dealing with complex psychiatric issues. www.rivierduinen.nl
