Botilbuddene Himmerland

Botilbuddene Himmerland is a social-pedagogical service in Himmerland, North Jutland, Denmark, providing support stays and respite care for children and young people. Its services are designed for those with needs related to autism spectrum conditions, ADHD, other developmental or behavioural difficulties, attachment disorders, or experiences of neglect. Stays are time-limited and recurring, offering support and relief while complementing—not replacing—the child’s or young person’s usual setting, such as home or a foster family.

The organisation focuses on meeting each individual with understanding, respect, recognition, and clear structure. Support is planned around the child’s or young person’s needs, with attention to creating a safe, consistent experience that connects with everyday life beyond the service. Collaboration with families is central, helping promote continuity and development across the child’s wider circumstances. Botilbuddene Himmerland also works closely with relevant partners involved in the child’s care. Its residential and respite locations include Rønnehus, Sallinghus, and Nørrehus. Families and others seeking information can contact the organisation by email or telephone.
