THE CHALLENGE

Sainsbury’s Inclusive Community Training Programme was designed to help improve knowledge, competence and confidence in delivering sports-based activities to disabled people. This initiative was a partnership through the English Federation of Disability Sport (EFDS) and UK Coaching (formerly Sports Coach UK).

MSP’s role was to organise and administer the running of the workshops to liaise and find groups to engage with the Universities. The aim was to empower future coaches with the skills to make their chosen sport inclusive for all.

PARTICIPANT FOCUS

“I didn’t really know what to expect before attending this workshop but I really enjoyed it. I feel I have learnt simple methods that can improve and help with my future coaching” – Ben Vince | Liverpool Hope University Student

TESTIMONIAL

“Really fascinating, informative course, it really breaks down every part of what we call sport and fitness and helps us see how we can improve and modify to adapt to each participants needs. A lot of the students will go on to be teachers and this type of session is very specific to the skill sets they will need in the future” – Dr James Malone | Liverpool Hope university Lecturer
