The Department of Culture and Leisure works from the premise that everyone has the right to a meaningful free time. In all our operations, we create opportunities for people to meet, co-create, experience, and participate in a varied range of cultural, sports, and leisure activities for everyone. Culture and leisure are important puzzle pieces in a growing Trelleborg, and our work contributes to attractiveness, safety, as well as quality of life and public health.

Since everything Trelleborg Municipality does is based on our value base of openness, respect, and responsibility, it is important and crucial that these values are just as obvious to you as they are to us in our work.
