Bettoni (Inail): “Sport is essential for the rehabilitation of people with disabilities”

Antonio Maglio taught “that sporting activity is fundamental for the rehabilitation and recovery of people with disabilities: we will be forever grateful”. This was stated by the president of Inail, Franco Bettoni, who spoke by videoconference at the event organized at the headquarters of the institute “Antonio Maglio: a beautiful all-Italian story”, dedicated to the Inail doctor who was a pioneer in the 1950s sport therapy for the full social integration of people with disabilities, to which the TV film “A hard snout” is dedicated, broadcast in prime time by Rai Uno. “The fiction has been a huge success continues Bettoni-, a well-deserved recognition to an extraordinary man who had already discovered the rehabilitative power of sport in the 1950s and made it clear that life could be lived fully to those who had suffered a serious disability. . Maglio was an Inail doctor and today I feel really proud to represent the institute I represent. I am sure that this too will be a morning full of emotions “.
