On a small island outside Mariehamn, Åland, there is a small red cottage that has become the centre of Folkhälsan on Åland summer activities. The Talatta cottage has been owned by the association since the mid-1940s, but with the help of Paf funds, a complete renovation could begin in 2015. What was once a decayed building has now become a place full of life, movement and above all play. “We have also built a terrace and an outhouse. This year we will also install solar panels and make Talatta more accessible for people with reduced mobility,” says Joakim “Jocke” Svensson, the coordinator of Folkhälsan’s Children and Youth programme.
