A social area, The Living, with a terrace by the water provides a connection between residents. The Living is an attractively furnished meeting space. The Mylivy hostesses facilitate its use, organising and facilitating activities there. They are the face for the residents. Every other week on Tuesdays, between 9 am and 4 pm, they are present in Westergoud. They can also be reached digitally via a specially developed app. Every tenant gets access to the Mylivy app. This provides information on planned activities, but also allows Mylivy to reach out to residents and invite them to activities. The credo is: nothing must be done, everything is possible!

Participation is, of course, without obligation. Not everyone likes all activities, which is why there are different interest groups. Furthermore, the hostess keeps an eye on things and acts as a point of contact for any everyday matters that residents may have trouble picking up or finding out for themselves.
