Fun Day at Sea for Disabled

Fun Day at Sea for Disabled

The Aquatic Day programme of the National Disabilities Unit is going strong,  and there was evidence of this last Wednesday when members of the disabled community took to Browne’s Beach.

Volunteers Andrea Holder and Sophia Trotman said  participants enjoyed rides on boats and beach buggies, all part of their physical therapy programme.

The activity is held monthly from 10 a.m to 3 p.m.
