Participation doesnt happen by chance. Your support makes it possible

Every person with disability should have the opportunity to take part in sport.

Yet too many are still excluded by cost, access, limited local options or not knowing where to start.

Last year, more than 3,300 people with disability were introduced to sport through our programs, and over 1.19 million people were reached through our Changing Lives Through Sport campaign.

Your support builds the opportunities and capability that make participation possible.

It keeps introductory sport days free, supports clubs to include people with disability and increases visibility so participation is recognised and valued. It also creates paid opportunities for people with disability to deliver sport.

Your support helps more people with disability take part in sport.

Why Your Support Matters

Participation starts locally. It happens in communities, clubs and environments that are ready.

Disability Sports Australia connects people with disability to sport and strengthens sport to create more opportunities to include them.

We deliver in local, regional and remote communities across Australia, removing barriers and creating opportunities to take part.

Government funding supports part of our work. Philanthropy and donations allow us to grow — reaching more communities and creating more opportunities for people with disability to take part.

Every dollar helps create more opportunities for people with disability to take part in sport.
