Resumo: The organization is a residential school for young disabled people between 17 and 20 years of age. The school offers a specially designed education based on the students individual competences and challenges and this education is given to all young people who cannot complete a normal youth education even with extra assistance and adapted curriculum.

At the organization we have 42 students, 11 teachers and 25 social workers and each student has a room of their own and lives in family groups of up till 13 other students. The young people who all have severe learning difficulties stays at the school for up till 3 years and come from all over the Northern part of Denmark.

The main purpose of the school is to equip and strengthen the students in becoming as independent and active in their own life as possible, and in spite of their handicap be an active citizen in the local community.

The environment is very influenced by the fjord and the town is an old fishing town. Today the fishing trade has declined and it is now smaller industries and companies doing different kinds of services but in the summertime, the town is full of tourists, many sailboats and visitors are coming due to the lovely seaside.

Perfil: We are looking for young people who are interested in working with young people with dissabilites – both in the sense of teaching but also through different practical actvities. Especially in the creative line – music, drama and sports.
We are open to volunteers from all countries who can speak English, German, Danish or the Scandinavian languages.

A chance to get relations with persons with “alternative intelligence” and discover the diversity among the students.
A chance to take part and gain cooking experience in the central kitchen (a warm meal is prepared 4 days a week for 80 persons).
A chance to plan and realize leisure time activities.
A chance to contribute in international projects.
A chance to discover new horizons.

Tarefas: In terms of service and learning opportunities we can give the volunteer a uique experience with our students. We can offer an environment where the volunteer can be part of a daliy life with full of action and challenging acitivites supporting the students in growing in knowledge and skills. All with the focus of training each student to the maximum potential of his/her abiblities.

It is our goal to help the student grow as independent as possible and as a residential school that involves training all the practical skills that it takes to be an adult living an independent life.
We have a very practical approach to teahing and the volunteer will be part of that training. We see the volunteer can contribute in many ways such as – helping the students with disabilies to clean, cook, training sports, play music, communicate on the web, support the staff in teaching and other activities.
We see the volunteer being involved in the social life of the students – play games, go to the cinema, go shopping, go to the café, go on trips and tours.

We see the volunteer will be able to give an extra input to the students, especially in the area of the students free time. The volunteer will be an asset in many ways to the students but we also believe that the students will be an asset to the volunteer and give him an experience for life.
In our protected work shop for adults the volunteer can be involved in making theatre (mime mask performances) with a group of very experienced players. In spite of the players disabilities the quality of the work is unique and the volunteer has the possiblity of taking active part in these productions.
The volunteer will also have the opportunity to be involved in production of art – both painting and pottery.
