Read MoreEffective engagement with disabled people
To truly tackle inequalities for disabled people, we need to increase our efforts and share good practice. Activity Alliance is the leading voice for disabled people in sport and activity. Established in 1998 as a national charity, we were previously known as the English Federation of Disability Sport.
Supported by Sport England, Activity Alliance is encouraging organisations who plan and deliver activity opportunities to think about the ways they include disabled people.
There is more than one way to engage disabled people and no set plan to ensure disabled people can take part in sport and physical activity. These resources empower organisations by providing the support, connections, and insight they need to embed inclusive practice into their work.
The factsheets are a great first step to learn about effective engagement. Our team of strategic partnership advisors are on hand to support organisations further with their expert guidance. Find out more about our team of partnership advisors here.
In addition to these factsheets, you can also access more resources on our YouTube channel with five video presentations on effective engagement. View our effective engagement playlist on YouTube (opens in a new window).
