Not all mental illness is diagnosed as stress-related problems, something that the project wanted to focus on and let people's own experiences be the focus.

Many people with mental health problems are stuck in unemployment and poor health. By providing an alternative environment with processes on several levels, more satisfactory results were achieved.

A much-appreciated feature was the daily sessions with Mindfulness The aim was to prevent and relieve stress but also to improve the ability to focus. With various courses and workshops, sustainability, nature stays and organic cooking were the common threads.

The twenty participants continuously gained knowledge in areas that they themselves were interested in. In total, eleven collaborations were started, both with authorities, local companies and associations. The project was met with great interest from visitors and a great response from the people who were project participants.
