International Mixed Ability Sports

Description

International Mixed Ability Sports developed the Mixed Ability model as an alternative to existing highly segregated sports provision for people with disabilities and other minority groups. The Mixed Ability model instead offers a radical approach to broader social inclusion by encouraging players of all abilities to join the same, mainstream clubs. IMAS supports groups to promote MA sports at all levels, from grassroots clubs to national governing bodies, while providing training and consultancy and an affiliation scheme. The Fore will fund two new roles that will drive earned income, increasing IMAS’s financial sustainability.
