No overview of administration

You receive mail almost every day. Sometimes through the letterbox, more often through the mail. It is then quite difficult to keep track.

Do you recognize this? That you get stressed by the amount of mail or are afraid of bills that you still have to pay? Or that you receive so many emails in your inbox that you don't know where to start? It may seem easiest to just not read your mail at all, but then you run a great risk of unpaid bills and debts.

The program neighborhood team in your neighborhood would like to put you in touch with a volunteer or group that can help you get an overview of your administration.     

Assistance with administration

We are happy to help you get an overview of your administration. If you come by and bring your mail and emails, we will look together at how we can help you. For example, we can arrange a volunteer, buddy or group in your neighborhood who can help you with:

  • Viewing your mail. Also the old and unopened letters and emails.
  • See which bills need to be paid. Also, a list can be made of other tasks that still need to be done.
  • Gaining an overview of your administration and maintaining an overview in the future. 
  • If you wish, an overview of your income and expenses can be made.

This way you gain control over your administration step by step. Email, call or drop by at the neighborhood team in your district!    

Frequently asked questions
