Drawing on examples from projects that have focussed on the role of leisure in the culture change process, this session provided a safe space for participants to critically reflect on the current discourse and practice of leisure and therapeutic recreation in long-term care settings. It also created opportunities for learning and sharing from others’ specific examples of how they are aligning leisure policy and practices with the culture change values. This process opened participants up to new possibilities for leisure practices in their own long-term care environments.
