About the project

📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

Jøssåsen Landsby is a community (village) for and with adults with disabilities and is part of the international Camphill movement. There are 5 other similar villages in Norway. The communities are based on the teachings of anthroposophy. Situated on a biodynamic farm, Jøssåsen has 5 family houses and several workshops. There are approximately 50 people living in the community. 3-5 villagers plus 3-4 co-workers live in each house. There are about 10 people from the local community who come to Jøssåsen on a daily basis to do various work. The village property, including all the buildings, land and forest is owned by the Camphill Trust. Jøssåsen is economically supported by the state.

💼 What the programme involves

The work will be outside: Making and fixing various fences. If the weather conditions allow it there will be some painting of the sheds or some landscaping.
