Students gather at Risbergska for crisis support

The sorrow and anxiety are great after the mass shooting in Örebro. At Club 700, the municipality is open to all students and teachers from Risbergska school. It is still completely incomprehensible to many, says coordinator Johanna Sollerman to TT.

A number of different crisis centers have been established in Örebro in a short time. Furthermore, personnel from municipalities throughout the county have been called in to help.

According to Johanna Sollerman, it is clear that many people feel a great need for support in various ways.

You need to talk, you need to meet each other. You need different degrees of crisis support, she says when TT meets her on Sunday.

"Many concerns"

The premises, located in central Örebro, primarily welcome students from Risbergska school. However, many teachers and relatives are also present.

Johanna Sollerman explains that the conversations are characterized by sorrow and anxiety.

There are many concerns. Both among those who were in the premises and those who were not. You wonder what would have happened if you had been there. Students are worried about their friends, teachers are worried about their students.

Hard to understand

Eleven people died in connection with the shooting, including the suspected perpetrator. The event has shaken the entire country – and sparked strong reactions abroad.

For many in Örebro, it is still hard to understand the event. Johanna Sollerman claims that the most important thing is to meet people on the mental level they are at.

We focus on being available and taking care. Meeting with warmth and care.
