DAGTEK SERVICEENHET offers services for people with intellectual disabilities or autistic spectrum disorders as a part of Western Uusimaa wellbeing services county (Västra Nylands välfärdsområde in Swedish). The activities Dagtek offers are divided into several sections in different areas.
FIXtv is a web-tv channel made by people with intellectual disabilities together with a tutor. The goal is to give people with disabilities positive visibility in society. FIXtv:s programs can be seen on our website, https://fixtv.fi.
Volunteers through the European Solidarity Corps program have become an important and highly valued resource in our activities. Through European Solidarity Corps volunteer cooperation, we wish to offer our community members the possibility to build networks and get a wider perspective on the world around us. At the same time, we hope to have one more person to be present for the clients and assist them in the daily workshop activities, as well as in social and practical situations during the day. Our clients have the opportunity to make their own international contacts and practice their English. Volunteers enrich our community by sharing their skills and being a part of our social community.
The volunteer will also write articles for Dagtek’s own Magazine (Dagtek Chronicles). The work with the magazine is done together with the clients and other staff members.
A couple times a year the volunteers will also plan parties for Dagtek. For example, a disco party or a summer party. This will be planned and arranged together with the staff members.
The volunteer’s role at FIXtv is to support and assist the clients in their daily activities. That means mainly everything that has to do with filmmaking. The volunteer will participate in planning, filming, editing and sharing our programs. Having filming and editing skills are of benefit, as is knowledge of using the editing program Premiere Pro or a similar one. One task is also to create content to FIXtv:s social media together with the clients.
The volunteer will also help the clients in their daily activities related to mealtimes, walks outside, as well as helping the clients when they arrive and leave Dagtek.
