Friday 8 November 2024, the board, advisors, and volunteers of Zeemanshuis The Bridge in Oostvoorne were guests at Miniworld on the Weena in Rotterdam for the unveiling of The Bridge\u2019s miniature model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In his speech, Arend Boer from Stichting Welzijn Zeevarenden Rotterdam emphasized the importance of hospitality and respect for seafarers\u2014the people who are so vital to our economy yet often live for months amid the noise of the ship and port.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Bridge has been given a beautiful spot in the largest miniature world in Europe. The platform of 850 square meters displays models of the coast, polder landscapes, and, notably, the port of Rotterdam which plays an important role in Miniworld. The seafarers’ centre fits in perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The representatives of The Bridge are immensely proud that \u201ca second version of The Bridge\u201d can now be seen in Miniworld at a scale of 1:87. There is also deep gratitude toward Stichting Welzijn Zeevarenden Rotterdam, Stichting Meemaken in Miniatuur, and Miniworld for this gesture, which demonstrates their appreciation for seafarers and for the work that the volunteers at The Bridge do to support the well-being of these individuals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
