Disability Sports Coach

Who we are

Disability Sports Coach uses the power of sport to enhance the lives of disabled people.

We do this through four key activities:

1. Community Clubs: 10 award-winning clubs across London bring disabled together to keep active and connected, improving physical and mental health.
2. Home Activity Programme: Free activity and social sessions online each week give disabled people more options to enjoy socialising and exercising.
3. On-site coaching: Specialist coaches deliver inclusive activities in schools, colleges, and community groups so disabled people aren't excluded from activities with friends.
4. Training courses: Sports coaches, teachers, and community groups are upskilled to confidently deliver inclusive activities that bring disabled people together.

Sport helps us achieve three aims:

- Improve disabled peoples' physical, mental and social wellbeing so they feel part of their local community.

- Reduce loneliness and isolation among disabled people, families and carers and increase networks of support.

- Educate activity providers, schools and community groups to adapt activities for disabled people, so nobody feels excluded.

We reach over 5,000 disabled people, families and carers every year.

Equality, diversity and inclusion policy

Equality, Equity and Diversity

We are committed to creating a welcoming environment for people from all backgrounds, perspectives and experiences. As part of our commitment, we want to diversify our Team to better reflect the diverse communities we serve across London. We encourage people of all backgrounds, particularly people from underrepresented backgrounds to apply.

Disabled Candidates

We will give every possible opportunity to disabled candidates who have the skills and experience we seek, as it is fundamentally important to the success of our charity to involve disabled people in our work.

If you are disabled, please let us know if there is anything else we can do to ensure the recruitment process is accessible to you.
