At Access Sport we are committed to using our experience and expertise to help make inclusion the norm across all community sport. 

We aim to support partners in the sport sector to embed inclusion in their systems, processes, programmes and culture.

Our system change work includes:

  • Amplifying the voices of the communities we support to create change at every level of community sport​ ​
  • Contributing to research and policy work to improve the sector’s overall ability to support underserved communities​
  • Providing advice, guidance and support to other sector organisations. This includes a strategic consultancy service with a track record in facility development advice, strategic planning, new programme development and event legacy planning.

We want to work with more people and organisations that share our commitment to inclusion. 

If you would like to enquire about our system change work, please leave your details in the form below and one of our team will be in touch.
