We also work with many other sports and provide advice and guidance on how to engage more people with a physical impairment into their sport.

Finding a sport or activity that you like and can take part in locally can be quite daunting so LimbPower run multisports events as well as sport specific events where community members can come along and try a new activity in a safe and fun environment. We also work with the NBGs to encourge inclusive opportunities in their sports programmes.

If you wish to find an opportunity locally to you then please follow the link Find a Sport this will guide you through the process on how to find a sport to suit your impairment or to find a local club.

LimbPower are available to answer any sport or physical activity enquiries as well as hear about the successes and problems you have experienced. Please email:
