Mencap Sport

Increasing the opportunities people with a learning disability have to take part in sport and physical activities.  

We have been funded by Sport England to support people with learning disabilities, and the communities in which they live, are physically active, happy and health and it is taking place from now until 2027.  

We will do this by:

Supporting 9 communities to become active ecosystems - Our Active Community
Inspiring a wider movement for change across the sector – Mencap Active Community

We work together with Sport England, our Mencap groups, services and external organisations to develop sport and physical activity opportunities within local communities.

Through our Learning Disability and Sport workshop we work to make mainstream environments inclusive and we organise annual national competitions in swimming and athletics.
