    Sport and physical activity are for everyone, and here in Northern Ireland we’re committed to being inclusive and offering equal opportunities to all, no matter your background or whether you have a disability.

    It’s important that everyone can find an activity that suits them and that they enjoy, and there is support and opportunities out there to get involved. Whether you want to try wheelchair basketball, boccia, adaptive swimming or another sport, help is available to make it happen.

    To find a suitable opportunity local to you, visit the Active Living No Limits website.
