Disability & Send
We believe that sport and physical activity should be available for everyone, regardless of ability, and its especially important that people with disabilities and special educational needs are given opportunities to participate and develop fundamental skills.
We continuously look to overcome barriers and create opportunities for people with disabilities to have fun, learn new skills and meet new people, all in a safe and supported environment.
What we do
Our passionate staff are committed to better understand and be aware of the needs of people with disabilities. We work with other local organisations who support our provisions and collaborate to think up new ideas for projects throughout the year.
It’s also important that we listen to the voice of people with disabilities to adapt our activities.
