The offer of leisure time activities for persons with disabilities in the Czech Republic is still not paying enough attention. Our aim is to find out what is the offer of services and obstacles for the expansion of its menu. These findings can then be used for more effective support to the development of these bodies, extensions and targeting of activities for persons with a Disability or other special needs. Research investigation was attended by 40 of 165 originally polled bodies (educational and nonschool organizations, commercial businesses and non-profit organizations) in the 6 counties. 55 % of them carries out actions for persons with a disability, most commonly combined and physical. The children of school age are the main focused group, and it is a single (rather than annual) event is an educational and artistic focus. Although it is based on 97,5 % of organizations to implement meaningful events for persons with a Disability, has only 25 % of them plenty of information and resources for their implementation.
