Multi-Sports Sessions for Blind & Partially Sighted Children
Action for Blind People is an expert national charity ensuring blind & partially sighted people get practical support in all aspects of their lives. Sport & leisure is one of the most exciting & fastest growing services within Action, where a team of Sports Development professionals are employed to run & manage Actionnaires.
Actionnaires is a multi-sports project which aims to realise the potential of blind & partially sighted children & young people aged 4-16 through recreational sport, building their confidence, self esteem & physical skills whilst encouraging them to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Actionnaires sessions include a programme of activities which are designed to get children & young people involved in sport & leisure activities. In addition to multi-sports sessions which include athletics, trampolining & swimming, the group runs regular 'away days'. Recent away days have involved trips horse riding, dry slope skiing, indoor climbing & tenpin bowling.
