Hi, just starteda new job as a Rec Officer. Will be taking exercises classes, however the space is limited and they are restricted to chairs or wheelchairs.

The activities look great, but not appropriate for what I will require. Any ideas for fun and lively activities for this enviroment and group?

Thanks heaps,

Bernie.
