Riistavuori Service Centre is an open meeting place, and its activities support you to live at home and promote your well-being. At our service centre, you can meet new people, spend time in good company, explore arts and crafts, keep fit and take part in cultural events all year round.

At Riistavuori, you can also take part in various peer support groups guided by our staff. We have social instructors, a physiotherapist, a culture instructor, an activities coordinator, and a crafts instructor working with us.

We work together with local daycare centres and schools, so different age groups can meet each other at our centre.

Our facilities include a restaurant and the Helsinki City Library. You can find the link to the restaurant's menu at the end of this page.

We also have a self-care point, customer computers and a printer for independent use.

The service centre's activities are intended for pensioners and the unemployed. Unless stated otherwise, the services provided at the centre are free. To access them, you need a service centre card that you can obtain from the service centre's information desk free of charge.
