Pikkukoski group home

Our group home in Veräjälaakso in Oulunkylä provides accommodation in Helsinki for adults with disabilities. Our staff are on site 24 hours a day.

The Pikkukoski group home provides 24-hour service housing for 26 adults with disabilities.

In Pikkukoski, you will live in your own rented apartment.

The group home is divided into five different floors, the ground and upper floors of House A, House B and the ground and upper floors of House C.

Each floor has common areas and a kitchen. The unit also has two saunas, as well as laundry facilities.

The unit has lifts, but the facilities are not fully accessible, as Houses A & B have thresholds and corridor doors with door closers that can make it difficult to move around with assistive devices.

Some apartments do not have a private bathroom (Houses A and B). The apartments do not have their own kitchens. Meals are served in communal dining areas.
