Welcome to Oostenburg
Over de Brug is a residents’ initiative to promote meetings between residents on de oostelijke eilanden. Oostenburg Noord will welcome 3,000 new residents, whom we would like to bring into contact with each other and with the current residents. We are thinking of all kinds of initiatives in the socio-cultural field. Learn together, have fun together, make music together, etc. As a local resident, you will receive support with your initiative. For example, you can use de Buurtkamer
Stichting Over de Brug is urgently looking for volunteers to help write articles, manage social media channels, and maintain the website.
