The sanctuaries Friskeröd & Surtung
Today, Friskeröd's farm is home to approximately 200 animals, of which 65 are horses. Friskeröd farm itself is a winter residence for the animals, but to be able to keep this many animals, larger areas are required. Therefore, a number of pastures are leased in a larger area around the farm. Animal husbandry at Friskeröd is based on providing each species with as natural conditions as possible. In order to be able to heal and live a life in freedom and without demands for adaptation to human needs.
Since the beginning, the work at the farm has been run entirely on a non-profit basis. The costs are mostly covered by donations and sponsorships. All work with the animals takes place on a voluntary basis, in collaboration with a team of farriers, veterinarians and other expertise - in consultation with the county administrative board.
Since October 2nd 2023 the farm Surtung is part of sanctuaries.

Friskeröd Academy
On-site and digital courses
In 2018, the horses at Friskeröd's animal sanctuary started a school for empathetic interbeing. This year we opened up the physical courses to international students. The courses held in place during 2025 are now open for applications.
It is now also possible to participate in a digital international course in eight parts. The course includes both live Zoom meetings and recorded material.
