Leisure activities ensure more benefits to the quality of life of people with intellectual disability both at personal and social level. |
|
Effectiveness: The most appropriate way for the inclusion in the local society is leisure activities at heir place of living: doing sports with the local teams, participating in local camps, involvement with local associations are the best ways of integration. Although it is recognisable clearly in a daily work there is still a lot of work to be done to be accepted as a normal practice. |
|
Dissemination: Information is given to people and their families in a very informal way. |
|
