Disability Awareness

Wheelchair Sports

Since it's inception in 2009, the wheelchair sports programme has had over 40,000 participants and has been the biggest of it's kind in the country. Created to raise awareness of disabilities, sessions bring together people of any fitness level or sporting ability, disabled or non-disabled, to all take part in a variety of wheelchair sports including wheelchair basketball - the most popular disability sport in the world.

The use of wheelchairs gets people of all ages and abilities to participate in the same, often new activity, all at a similar level; breaking down barriers and promoting inclusivity. It's a great leveler, giving those that don’t usually consider themselves as sporty the chance to take part in a fun, accessible activity.

We're proud to work with our partners across Lincolnshire and support them to deliver wheelchair activity sessions locally.

How to get involved

If you'd like to know more about how to get involved with wheelchair sports sessions in Lincolnshire get in touch with the organisations above or contact our team.

“We were lucky enough to receive a term of training in wheelchair basketball from Active Lincolnshire and have to say that it was one of the best series of sports training we have had in school. The use of the wheelchairs was a great leveller for the children and was a hit with all learners. What was most marked was the way in which some children, who had been considered to be reluctant to take part in PE, were fired up by the activities.”

– Bill Lord, Head Teacher at Long Sutton Primary School
