Who are we Lindebjerg Residential Facility is a 24/7 staffed residential facility, pursuant to the Danish Housing Act §105 with support under the Social Services Act §85, for adults with physical and mental disabilities.

There is wide variation in residents’ functional levels, but the common factor for all residents is that they need individualized compensatory educational support and guidance to make everyday life work and to participate in social communities.
