As a left handed D.T I am going to celebrate my uniqueness ( top 10%) and encourage some games for our clients the " left handed way"!! Balloon throwing and batting with the left hand only.
How about you you have an activity where the right hand is not used (or if you have a right handed person vice versa.) Not only would it highlight the left handed day it would also make people more aware of what it feels like for a person with a hemiplegia and the frustrations they go through especially if their dominant hand has been paralysed. Maybe something like a simple craft or even making a card - just a thought :) Sheila Douthwaite (Occupational therapist, Mbango Valley Association, South Africa)

I have been in this field for close to 15 years. I came across your website initially because I was searching for a shared, personal forum with other professionals in my field that was not attached to random advertising and monthly fees. After discovering your website which hosted a forum that was exactly what I was looking for, as well as providing a mountain of resources that didn’t require you to follow several external links to get to, and to top it off no monthly recurring fee...Jackpot!
