WHAT IS

"There just isn't enough Sport Provision out there for young people with disabilities like my son!" Children and young people with disabilities want more choices of activities that are suitable for them and that they feel confident they will enjoy. For some, this means more activities that are inclusive for disabled and non-disabled children. Others want activities that are just for children with similar impairments.

To be able to fund more sports provision for children and young people with disabilities Menphys needs to raise vital funds so we created The Menphys Sports Club and now we need YOU!! ​
