Retreat for Ukrainians at Vrångö island

"It gives opportunity to forget about bad things in your life, about the war for some time. For me, it is a moment of unity”, says our attendee Yulia

💙 Hug's project Better You&Me offers a safe space for those carrying the traumas of war to heal and recover. Our retreats focus on both mental and social health, which is crucial for long-term well-being.

🌳 During the retreat, participants from Ukraine engage in activities like painting and body exercises, fostering a relaxed atmosphere for creative expression. Speaking their native language enhances community and safety, allowing them to share experiences freely and deepen their sense of belonging.

✨ By creating a sanctuary for healing and community, we help participants grow and build a brighter future.
