Guidance from the Activity Alliance
Activity Alliance has published Reopening Activity: An inclusive response, in consultation with partners across sport, leisure and disability equality.
The national charity wants providers to consider the guidance as part of their ongoing commitment to disabled people’s inclusion.
The resource covers areas such as session planning, engagement, and workforce. It complements and builds on other guidelines from government, Sport England, professional associations, and governing bodies.
Counting for one in five of our population, disabled people including those with long-term health conditions, are a significant audience to engage. But as the least active group in society, the health and well-being benefits of activity are particularly important. Despite disabled people facing additional barriers in accessing sport and physical activity, research shows many want to be more active.
