Alla bör ha möjligheten att utöva, för dem, meningsfulla aktiviteter. Detta förutsätter att miljön där aktiviteten äger rum är tillgänglig, även för de med funktionshinder. Syftet med denna studie var att beskriva synskadades erfarenheter av tillgänglighet till aktiviteter i samhället tillsammans med sin Ledarhund. Till datainsamling valdes en kvalitativ ansats. Semistrukturerade intervjuer genomfördes med 11 informanter, samtliga synskadade med Ledarhund.

The dog has played an important and significant role for mankind throughout history. It's no coincidence that they are known as "Man's best friend". Traditional tasks that the dog has performed include hunting, herding and guarding. In modern times its role has adapted to perform complex tasks in a great number of new areas which many people are not aware of or thinking about. My aim with this report is to attempt to chart as many different ways of using dogs as possible, in order to make society conscious of the great benefits the dog can offer society. .
