My organisation is a hospital called Ersta Diakoni, it is a nonprofit organisation, privat.

From the beginning, it started 1854, it was a small hospital where the first nurses/diakons in Sweden were educated. It was established by money from a young singer Jenny Lind (who had a lot of money) and a young nurse. The "speciality" of this hospital is to define and help people who need it best. We also treat hidden foreigners here e.g. We have hidden places for battered women and children abused. It is also just an ordinary hospital.

We still have a mild winter and that is a good thing so far for the people not having home. Longing for the sun!
