What is living in Haakoninlahti Housing Group like? 

You will have a private apartment with a balcony. The size of our apartments is 35–36 square metres.

The apartments of the housing group (20 in total) are located in the same stairwell on four floors. 

Our transitional apartments are located near the housing group.

We share a laundry room and sauna facilities with the rest of the housing company. The housing group also has shared facilities in which you can dine or spend time together if you want to. 

What is everyday life like with us?  

Our instructors will assess together with you what kinds of things you need help with. You can receive support and help as agreed or in unexpected situations around the clock.

Our instructors will help you with aspects such as household chores, hygiene, meal arrangements, medical care and cooperation with your networks. They will also help you take care of various matters. 

We can also help you with leisure time matters, such as hobbies. 

All of the daily meals are served in the downstairs shared space of the housing group, but you can also prepare your own meals in your home by yourself or together with an instructor.

We can also practice going to the grocery store together.  

We arrange shared activities in the housing group, such as a Friday café and outdoor activities. We always celebrate public holidays as well.
