Your injuries do not have to have been life changing.
You do not have to be registered disabled.
You do not have to have had a serious long term illness.
You do not have to be a wheelchair user.
You do not have to have been diagnosed with a mental health condition.
You do not have to prove you have been tested for neurodiversity.
Even if you would like to try the sports to help relieve short term stress, you can take part.
Or just come along so that you know what support is available if you ever need it.
You only need to confirm that you are currently, or have previously been a member of any police organisation.
How We're Going to Achieve it;
Through the power of sports recovery.
We are supporting our members already playing and those wanting to play sport in their local community.
By providing sports equipment through a range of grants and loans schemes.
Working alongside local government, disability sports teams, charities, police federations, police disability associations and the community, we are able to fund adaptive sports equipment for officers and staff all over the UK.
We can do this by staging national police disability sports events, Multi-Sport camps and inclusive games, where police forces can go head to head in team and individual events.
We will create the first UK Police sports leagues with selection for Home Nations teams with the aim of creating the Home Nations Championships.
We will also create the first Police Disability Sport Team UK, With the intention of creating an International Police Disability Sports Championships in multiple sports.
So
If you are a police officer, police staff, or a volunteer, either serving or retired and think you will benefit from sports recovery and need help with equipment, take a look on our 'Support' page to find out how best we can help with your needs.
