Disability and Activity

The idea

Children with physical disabilities gain the same benefits from activity, in fitness, strength, coordination, mood and social skills, as other children.

In practice

A child in a wheelchair playing on an adapted playground with classmates.

Where people slip

The barriers are practical and social: inaccessible facilities, missing adapted equipment, and attitudes toward disability.
