Clients, carers and staff from the Day Services for Persons with a Disability within Agenzija Sapport enjoyed an evening packed with activities, held at the Splash and Fun Water Park last week.
Various activities such as water games, bowling, volleyball and tug-of-war were held and a barbecue was also organised. Popular Maltese singers provided entertainment. This activity forms part of the integration programmes for persons with a disability throughout the year.
The event brought together about 225 people with a disability, together with their carers.
Such initiatives provide persons with a disability the chance to interact and to showcase their various skills in crafts, sports and music.
Currently there are around 450 people with a disability who are receiving a service from the Day Services. The 10 Centres are located in Paola, St Venera, Hal Far, Fleur de-Lys, Marsascala, Pembroke, Swatar, Vittoriosa and Imtarfa.
