Thank you for joining us for our upcoming Disability Inclusion Training. We are looking forward to having you join us.

What will I get from the Disability Inclusion Training?

Disability Inclusion Training is designed to increase confidence, competence, and knowledge to create inclusive environments, and deliver fun and inclusive activities for all abilities and needs. The training explores both disability-focused delivery and being inclusive of disabled people within your existing sport sessions.

What will I learn?

Disability Inclusion Training covers:

  • The importance of disability inclusivity through a sport and physical activity lens
  • Barriers and challenges for disabled people in accessing traditionally provided sport and physical activity
  • Introduction to various disabilities, impairment groups and long-term health conditions – including physical disabilities; learning disabilities and difficulties; visual impairments; hearing impairments and other non-visible disabilities
  • Practical skills, tools and ideas to adapt and develop inclusive practice in your own environment

What can I expect?

This Disability Inclusion Training will be run in person and will include:

  • Information sharing from tutors - utilising a powerpoint presentation
  • Open questions to the group - questions will be asked to the group, and you will be invited to share when and how you feel comfortable (this might include writing answers down, sharing to the room, or choosing not to share)
  • Discussion with peers - this will include small group discussions, and we ask participants to get involved in discussions as they feel comfortable.
  • Practical application - taking part in pratical activities as individuals or in a group
