Stiftung Behindertenbetriebe Schattdorf

Sensory trail for adults with disabilities

Schattdorf in the canton of Uri has a population of just under 5,000. The Stiftung Behindertenbetriebe Uri (SBU) was founded in 1970 and contributes to a high quality of life for adults with disabilities with its range of work, employment and housing opportunities.
Eveline Zberg, an employee of SBU, wrote her diploma thesis on the topic of the sensory path as part of her training as a social pedagogue. The work convinced the management and the Board of Trustees so that this project was implemented within two years.  
A total of 36 stations with different focuses on the topics of hearing, tasting, touching and looking promote perception, increase well-being, awaken memories and offer varied activities. The project was financed by donors.
