New campaign promotes Active Summer Fun to disabled people

A new participation campaign created by the English Federation of Disability Sport (EFDS) and National Disability Sport Organisations (NDSOs) is encouraging more disabled people to find out and play out over summer. Active Summer Fun is an exciting new campaign for 2015 that aims to support more disabled people to find ways to be active during the warmer months.

Supported by Sport England, Active Summer Fun will help disabled people to find the best information, ideal activities as well as the right people and organisations that can support you to be more active. The campaign is backed by a collection of vibrant promotion, to be used across various channels over July, August and September.

This summer is jam-packed full of activities for disabled people to enjoy. Whether wanting to take part at a local level or spectate at an international championships, the next few months are crammed with exciting opportunities. Long after the summer is over, the organisations will continue to work together to encourage more people to be active together.

No matter what the weather brings this summer, being active indoors or outdoors can be great fun. When it's fun, we are more likely to carry on being active too.

All of our local districts and boroughs, as well as a number of other providers across Leicestershire, Leicester City and Rutland, are endeavouring to bring this amazing summer of sport home - offering a range of exciting activities, sessions, camps, courses and clubs, to keep everyone active over the summer holiday.
