New play area for vulnerable children

Cool East
Activities for adolescents with brain injuries

Roundabout for children in wheelchairs
“The grant from the Vissing Foundation means that we can now set up a roundabout that is also suitable for wheelchair users. It is an opportunity for the children to play, and it stimulates them mentally, physically and socially.”

Nordstjernen
Antibiotic-resistant bacteria
“We expect the results of our study to show a way to reduce resistant bacteria infections, so that in future patients can be admitted to hospital without the fear of infections that are difficult or impossible to treat with antibiotics.”

Region Zealand
Study of a particular type of colorectal cancer

Mødrehjælpen
Children with high-risk leukaemia
