Do you need help?

Go to your local buurt- of dorpskamer (community centre). Or go to the Meedenkpunt (help centre) at the City Hall.

You do not need an appointment to go to the Meedenkpunt. You can ask questions about matters such as an unclear letter you received from the local authority, an allowance or information about your benefits.

Opening hours Meedenkpunt

  • Monday from 1.00 pm to 5.00 pm.
  • Tuesday from 1.00 pm to 5.00 pm.
  • Wednesday from 13 am to 5.00 pm.
  • Thursday from 1.00 pm to 5.00 pm.
  • Friday from 13.00 am to 5.00 pm.

The Meedenkpunt is a test. We will see in the near future whether residents want this.
