The importance of hobbies, interests and fun

Earlier this year we wrote about the importance of fun in Learning Disability Today’s new InFocus Magazine.

The quarterly digital magazine is designed for people with lived experience, their friends, families and carers, as well as professionals. Each issue tackles a different theme where it groups together all the latest evidence in one place. (For copyright reasons please download the article as a PDF from the link below).
