Description

A practical and informative text full of recreational activities for people with profound disabilities. There is growing awareness of the important contribution leisure activities can make to the quality of life for disabled people and the role of leisure in integrating people into the community. This book covers a wide range of play and leisure activities for people who have severe or profound disabilities. It also covers issues which are of current and continuing concern, for example, whether adults play, the age-appropriateness of activities, integration and the use of community facilities. This book has practical step-by-step instructions and useful illustrations on how to make many of the ideas. Also included, together with further reading, are lists of useful addresses of organisations, manufacturers and suppliers.

Table of Contents
