Huis van de Buurt De Witte Boei: Community centre in Wittenburg, Amsterdam
De Witte Boei is the neighbourhood house for Wittenburg, on the Kleine Wittenburgerstraat in the eastern islands of central Amsterdam. Local families go for after-school clubs, courses and help with money or parenting. Children can take dance, sport, painting and photography after school, and youth workers run programmes on subjects such as social media, relationships and personal development. For adults the emphasis is practical, with debt help and parenting courses. It is a house for residents more than a stop for visitors, and Stichting DOCK runs it with social workers. The large hall holds 84 people, with smaller rooms for 40 and 15, plus a kitchen. Activities change through the year, and DOCK publishes them on WijkConnect. The building is wheelchair accessible, including the toilet. De Witte Boei is open Monday to Thursday from 08:30 to 22:00 and on Friday from 08:30 to 17:00. Saturday and Sunday are by request. You can walk in for a coffee and a talk with DOCK staff.
