England Athletics help make running events more inclusive
England Athletics has produced a short animation to help organisers to put on more inclusive running events. It guides viewers on how to provide a welcoming environment and making small and simple adjustments. If applied successfully, it will enable more disabled people to take part as well as improving the experience for all participants.
The animated video also suggests what information to provide, what considerations may be needed for specific impairment groups and how to improve physical access.
The video supports an existing guidance document ‘Inclusive Guidance for Race and Event Providers’.
