Helping adults with learning difficulties was the key theme to an Occupational Therapy event held by NHS Lanarkshire at Kirklands.
Susan Cotterill, NHS Lanarkshire’s lead occupational therapist, said: “The aim of the event was to share information about the work we do with adults with learning disabilities to help and support them.
“We highlighted a number of different assessments and specialist interventions.
“In addition to presentations on the benefits and uses of animal assisted therapy, enabling arts and yoga, there were several poster presentations.
"These included: sensory integration, creative arts as therapy, vocational rehabilitation, and various support groups."
Workshops were also held on Yoga as Therapy, Sensory Integration and Vocational Rehab.
