support for front-line staff

WE support frontline staff in Denmark

Every year, we donate a portion of the profits from the sale of products through our frontline personnel concept (FPC) to associations and projects that help individuals who may have suffered serious physical or psychological injuries in the course of their duties.

Frontline personnel are defined by us as people who have either worked or continue to work in the armed forces, police, emergency management agency, fire, hospital, and prison services.

You are welcome to contact us if you have a good idea for a collaboration, or know of a worthy project that would greatly benefit from receiving our support. Support can be in the form of either financial aid, clothing, or practical assistance in planning and implementing a given project.

Below, you can read about some of the projects we have previously supported.

MY MOUNTAIN

Mit Bjerg offers 5 current or former police officers a trip to Austria's unique mountains and nature.

What these 5 have in common is that they have all suffered psychological or physical injuries, and live with challenges that are life-altering.

In the mountains, there is an opportunity to challenge the participants physically and mentally, and a unique and safe community is quickly formed, where the focus is on helping, sparring, and collaborating. At the same time, a space is created where everyone is in the same boat, everyone understands each other and the daily challenges that the participants struggle with. This creates an intimate and safe space where one can be oneself and be understood in a way that others back home might not be able to.

FRIDAY SOCIAL FOR VETERANS

We support freediving for veterans, which helps them regain mental peace and well-being.

In a world full of noise and constant demands, it can be difficult to find peace. For many veterans, it is an even greater challenge when mental scars like PTSD make everyday life heavier. In the water, the pace slows, thoughts calm down, and focus sharpens. The project provides participants with a break from everyday life, where the sole focus is on addressing the mental challenges veterans may have.

THIN BLUE LINE

Four police officers with PTSD were selected by Thin Blue Line (TBL) to participate in a rehabilitation trip to Brazil. Niels Christian Holmgaard Opstrup, a veteran from the Balkans, leads a unique program where participants get away from the pressures of everyday life and can focus on exercise, healthy eating, and optimal sleep, as well as, importantly, building camaraderie and cohesion among the participants.

The daily routine included morning cardio training, strength training, and social activities, as well as adventure tours in Brazil's nature with trekking, snorkeling, and rappelling. All with the aim of strengthening networking and creating close bonds between participants that extend beyond the trip itself.

Thin Blue Line Denmark was officially founded in December 2016 as an association with the primary purpose of supporting injured police officers.

THE VETERAN SHOOTERS

Veteranskytterne was founded by one of Denmark's most decorated veterans, Jacob Panton, who was severely wounded by the Taliban in Afghanistan in 2012.

Jacob founded the association Veteranskytterne to create a community for wounded veterans who could no longer be in active service. Today, the association has over 100 members and offers activities for wounded Danish soldiers and their families.

"Our intention is to build community and positive experiences for wounded veterans and their families. It is not always easy to create a new life and find a new identity after a life as an active soldier. We help and support each other when life hurts."
