It provides indispensable material for use with learning disabilities, mental health, physical disabilities and regressed psychiatric or geriatric patients. The non-competitive nature of these activities ensures that people feel safe in making a contribution, and fear of failure or disappointment is effectively eliminated. Divided into photocopiable sections, these provide a session format that focuses on maintaining and increasing the function of the whole person. It is an ideal resource for day centres, hospitals, care homes and the creative group leader.
