About us
All about the cluster
A village cluster that brings the parishes together around shared development and community.
Our purpose
The overall aim of village clusters is to support new collaboration across villages and thereby strengthen rural life. The wish is that residents of several villages collaborate, set priorities and establish shared long-term goals for the whole cluster together with the municipality.

The board is elected across all four parishes.

Working groups
The practical work happens in groups, where volunteers each take on their own area.
Huse med potentiale
Beautification & settlement
Bedst mod West wants good housing and a tidy townscape that welcomes both residents and guests. The group works on beautification, maintenance and providing good housing for those who want to stay in the area – or move here.
Transport og stier
Mobility for young and old
Being able to get to and from the area is crucial – not least for young and old. The group works for the best possible public transport as well as good paths and, in time, cycle paths, to the benefit of tourists too.
Ungegruppen
Marcus Ottosen (spokesperson) et al.
The young people dream of a youth house – a place just for them, where they can hold a Friday café and cosy evenings. Ideas for a part-time job portal and a sports-hall ball are also on the table. The group would like more young people to help decide.
Integrationsgruppen
Welcome & networks
Many newcomers move to the area. The group works to create networks, help with Danish rules and support learning Danish – so new residents become part of the community.
