Ballerup Kommune

What Ballerup Kommune does

Ballerup Kommune is a Danish municipal government entity established in 1970 under the Danish municipal reform (Kommunalreformen), serving residents in the Capital Region of Denmark from its headquarters at Hold-An Vej 7, 2750 Ballerup. It delivers all statutory local government functions, including elder care, disability services, childcare, youth education, employment support, waste management, urban planning, public health, and citizen administration. The municipality operates a network of specialized service units: the Center for Omsorg og Sundhedsfremme (Care and Health Promotion) coordinating care and preventive health; Hjemmepleje (Home Care) for in-home personal care, cleaning, laundry, grocery delivery, and meal delivery; Tandplejen (Dental Care); Genoptræningsenheden (Rehabilitation); Køkken Ballerup (a central kitchen plus six local kitchens feeding seven nursing homes and five elderly cafes); and the Aktivitets- og aflastningstilbud (Activity and Respite Centers). Seven municipal nursing homes (Egely, Kirstinehaven, Lindehaven, Toftehaven, Lundehaven, Rosenhaven, Sønderhaven) provide residential care.

The municipality's core technology is the Borger (citizen) digital self-service portal at ballerup.dk, offering over 170 self-service solutions across citizen service areas (relocation, waste, healthcare, elder care, childcare, employment, traffic) integrated with national MitID/NemLog-in Digital Post for secure communication. Distribution is multi-channel: digital self-service, in-person Borgerservice at the Town Hall, home visits by care staff, nursing home facilities, elderly cafes, activity centers, and a network of approved private providers (e.g., Ajourcare, Cura Pleje, Din Private Døgnpleje, Jasmin, Det Danske Madhus, Sæsonens, Egebjerg Købmandsgård, Intervare, Elis, Textilia) from which citizens can freely choose as an alternative to the municipal provider.

Revenue is derived from municipal income tax, state block grants, and user fees (Takster) for specific services such as meal delivery, elderly café prices, and home care co-payments, with prices adjusted annually. The municipality is governed by an elected Kommunalbestyrelsen (Municipal Council), has no private ownership structure, and is not a commercial investment target. It maintains communication channels via ballerup.dk, Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram, and traditional press. Leadership includes Director Jannik Karoli Plum Nielsen and Center Manager Dorte Dahl at the Center for Omsorg og Sundhedsfremme, Data Protection Officer Malene Rafn Permin, and Søren Jespersen at the Center for Kultur, Idræt og Fritid.
