Get involved in adapted physical activity groups
Groups for adults with minor mobility challenges
The groups are suitable for adults who are suffering from e.g. musculoskeletal symptoms, sensory impairments or a mild/early-stage neurological disease. Moving indoors is possible without aids, no need for assistance. Outdoors or on longer walks, customers may use a cane or walker.
The instructor is able to apply and practically applies movements/activities that support clients’ functional capacity. The sports facility is not expected to be completely accessible, but access will nevertheless be relatively easy (e.g. only a few stairs).
Groups for adults who need more support
The groups are suitable for adults who have a need for a larger support network due to a disability or long-term illness (e.g. housing, transportation, assistant or interpreter services). Customers’ functional capacity may be temporarily or permanently reduced. They might use a cane, a walker or a wheelchair as a mobility aid. Customers may need sign language interpretation or a guide dog or support dog as well as a calm space.
The group has a general assistant, or assistance for participants has been planned differently. The instructor is able to apply and practically applies movements/activities that support clients’ functional capacity. The sports facility must be accessible (e.g. accessible with mobility aids).
