Inclusive Sports Project
'Providing inclusive sporting activities in Elmbridge, inspired by the 2012 Games'
The Inclusive Sports project, inspired by the 2012 games is at three locations around the Borough. The activities follow the same set up, they are open to anyone with additional needs who live or go to school in the Borough. An Olympic sport is chosen by the group for a 6 week block of activities, to develop skills, build relationships and improve confidence, by using the Olympic and Paralympic Values.
The projects logo was created by the young people with additional needs as part of the building of the club.
If you want to join any of the activities below, please contact the |Sports Development Team.

Inspiremark
The Elmbridge Inclusive Sports Project was recognised by the London Organising Committee of the Olympic Games (LOCOG) as having a 'inspired' project. The official games badge for non commercial supporters of the games is given to projects or events that are inspired by the London 2012 Games. The Sports Development Team was awarded the use of the Inspire mark for the inclusive sports project as it aims to reach
local young people with additional needs to give them the opportunity to achieve success in a variety of Olympic or Paralympic Sports, that are chosen by them.
For further information regarding the inclusive sports activities please contact the |Sports Development Team.
