Announcing our new research project on ‘Inclusive reopening’
We are excited to announce our next research project. We have partnered with Britain Thinks to explore how disabled people can be included in physical activity as we look to recover from the pandemic.
This research project will include workshops with our members, an online community with disabled people, a survey with providers and deliverers, and a co-production workshop. This will explore:
-
- How the pandemic is continuing to affect disabled people; their participation in organised activity now and in the future; their concerns, hopes, and expectations.
- What support disabled people might need when taking part in organised activities;
- What opportunities there are for disabled people to be active at the moment, and what challenges providers face in offering activities where everyone can take part together; and
- What support and tools could help sport and physical activity providers provide more inclusive opportunities.
This timely research will amplify the voices of disabled people and provide a set of recommendations to help organisations across the sector, with findings released in late Spring.
