We support people of all ages living with a disability, including the delivery of Down’s syndrome, powerchair, vision impairment and mental health football sessions. We help participants improve motor skills and physical fitness, as well as build their self-esteem and provide opportunities to interact with new friends and the wider community all through Disability Sport.

Low self-esteem and a lack of confidence can plague children with disabilities. Allowing them to have equal access to sports can enhance their gross motor skills, social and communicating abilities, as well as improve their overall health and well-being. Children with special needs will mature physically, socially and emotionally when participating in a recreational activity.
