People with learning disabilities held their own special Olympic tournament as part of a scheme to get them involved in sport.
One-to-One Enfield held a football match at the Southbury Leisure Centre, in Southbury Road, Enfield, in association with Special Olympics Great Britain.
Part of the Unified Sports initiative, it enables people of all ages with learning disabilities to practice and play together on the same teams as people of all ages.
Disabled people are experiencing a hidden housing crisis, says a new report suggesting that many are having to wash in their kitchens and sleep in their living rooms because their homes are ill-designed for their needs.
The charity Leonard Cheshire Disability claims that as many as five million people now need a disabled-friendly home, a number set to rise as the population ages. A survey for the charity’s Home Truths campaign finds that almost three-quarters of people with mobility problems do not have an accessible door into their building. More than half say their buildings do not have doors and hallways wide enough for a wheelchair.
