AnnotationThis book presents papers on ways in which older adults with learning difficulties or developmental disabilities can achieve an element of quality of life through leisure experiences which provide meaning, time structure and satisfaction in daily living. The papers range across health, fitness, exercise, expressive arts, enriching later life experiences, consumer satisfaction, integration and leisure education. The concluding chapter focuses on retirement as applied to this population, and the training concerns of those who work with them.
