Background of the Activity Team 

Back in the fall of last year, we launched The activity team, which will strengthen our work in guiding and referring participants, relatives and professionals about our many different activities in the Danish Red Cross Capital. The purpose of the team is to be a safe point of contact that ensures:

• That participants quickly and safely become part of our community.
• That participants receive advice on activities that best suit their needs. 
• That we can provide guidance to other relevant organizations or professional help, if necessary. 
• That professionals or relatives can obtain relevant information about the value of our various activities, so that they can recommend them to potential participants.
