| In
HISO we have a vision! The vision is to make it possible for disabled people to
gain not only activities in the organizations for the disabled, but also activities
in other sport or leisure time organizations. We want to take part in the process
of integration and make inclusion possible! People have many different needs,
so has the disabled! To make this successfully, it is very important to
educate and inform the leaders in these organizations, about different disabilities
and how to act when a person with a certain disability comes to join them! Sometimes
you also need special equipment to participate and it is a task for us to try
and solve even this question. |
| GROUP
ACTIVITIES |
| Today HISO has many different activities
which involve many training groups and of course many leaders/instructors. The
activities are mostly during evenings and weekends. You must pay for a special
card to participate. But you only pay one amount, even if You take part in many
different activities |
For
example you can participate in: - Bocce ball

It
is important to have in mind that the social aspects of the activities are just
as important as the sportactivities themselves. |
