Star Rating: 5/5

This handbook is a result of a collaborative effort with day
centres across the country and this is why staff, volunteers and
management of day centres will benefit from having a copy, writes
Russell Holland.

The handbook could be used as a mini-course in understanding the
main issues specific to day centres and is an excellent source for
training purposes. It is also a great tool for generating new ideas
and assessing current practice.

Each chapter follows a standard easy-to-read format with
insightful case studies, comprehensive good practice tips and, for
those who want to find out more, a wide range of links to websites
are also included. An excellent addition to any day centre
bookshelf.
