Description
A practical handbook for non-competitive activities, suitable for individuals and groups across various age spectrums. This book provides 100 activities that can be used in day centres, hospitals, care homes, and other settings to support people with learning disabilities, mental health conditions, physical disabilities, or regressed psychiatric/geriatric patients. The focus is on maintaining and increasing the function of the whole person, using photocopiable sections that offer a session format. This approach eliminates fear of failure or disappointment, creating a safe environment for participation. The activities are designed to be effective in these settings, making this handbook an ideal resource for creative group leaders and professionals working with vulnerable populations. The book is divided into practical sections, providing a valuable resource for those seeking non-competitive activities that can be tailored to individual needs.
