The weekend is part of a three-year health project called “Together”. The focus is on trying to increase physical activity in the group with intellectual disabilities, who are seen having difficulty finding activities in the country’s sports associations.
– There are families from all over the country here in Östersund this weekend, which is great fun. It’s about de-dramatizing sportsmen and doing things together as a family. Promoting physical activity and movement in this group is incredibly important, says Susanne Pettersson from Parasport Sweden.
