APPEALS: Young Disabled on Holiday

Young Disabled on Holiday, a branch of Holidays for the Disabled, is appealing for pounds 11,000 for its 1994 holiday programme, and also for voluntary able- bodied helpers to accompany the holidaymakers. YDH provides active holidays for some 150 people, aged 18- 35: this year three are planned for overseas, in Malta, Florida and Dublin, and two in Cardiff and London. The holidays give opportunities for those with disabilities to try activities they could not otherwise do: riding, swimming, rock-climbing and visiting caves, coal- mines and Disneyworld have all been accomplished on past holidays.
