The Red Cross runs the Reception House - Móttøkuhúsið - where newly arrived Ukrainians can stay until they have received an answer to their application for residency in the Faroe Islands.

There are a number of activities at Móttøkuhúsið, for example, language practice and hiking, that all Ukrainians in the Faroes are welcome to join - both those who live at Móttøkuhúsið and those who don't.

The purpose of the activities is to meet and socialise, as well as learn something new, for example, the Faroese language. It is an opportunity to meet people in a similar situation as you, with whom you can share experiences and thoughts. It will be an open group, which means the group can change from time to time because new people will come, and some may stop coming.

It is necessary to sign up for the activity you wish to participate in. The deadline is at 12 pm the day before the activity.

Sign up by emailing redcross@redcross.fo, stating your name, the activity you wish to participate in, and the time of the activity.

If you are interested in helping with coordinating the activities, being responsible for a specific activity or you have any ideas for new activities, you are welcome to contact Red Cross.

Below can you see activities for the next weeks.
