Higher pulse on Resarö

Resarö Village Association has built an outdoor gym and made the weaving shed more energy efficient so that more people can use the premises and practice their hobby.

About the project

Resarö Bygdeförening, a part of the island's recreational life since 1944, has expanded the activities by establishing an outdoor gym, a lit exercise trail, and improved indoor spaces. The project aimed to meet the increased demand for weaving and preserve the community center as a central place for recreational activities. By offering meaningful engagements for both youth and seniors, the association strives to create a gathering place where community and new activities can be explored.

The weaving studio was upgraded to provide a warm and welcoming environment year-round, while freeing up space in the community center for more activities. The second part of the project included the construction of an outdoor gym with an adaptable exercise trail, in consultation with local associations and businesses to ensure accessibility for all ages and physical conditions.
