Abstract
In this chapter we shall consider some of the restrictions on social and leisure activities experienced on return to the community. We shall also describe various ways in which people adapted to these restrictions over time. In keeping with our conceptual framework of the disability career, the main focus will be on the changes people had made in their social and leisure activities, and their changing perceptions of this area of their lives.
