Sport England ‘Inclusive Sport’ funding • Step change in funding for disability sport • Move away from traditional partners with more engagement of the wider disability sector • ‘Insight’ key – evidence of engaging disabled people and proof that projects deliver what the end user wants, not what the bidding organisation wants to deliver

  5. Key themes within the funding • Innovation • New ways of delivering sport for and with disabled people • Scaleable • Projects that can have bigger impact on more disabled people in more places with more investment • Replicable • Existing projects that can be rolled out across more of the landscape with more investment

  6. Your project ideas • What project ideas do you want to develop a bid for? • How can you evidence the ‘insight’ element? • Are they innovative, scalable and / or replicable in HE Sport? • What support do you need from BUCS?

  8. In support • Materials to ‘sell’ sport to disability support services • Development of pilot programmes of models of social and intra-mural sport • Support resources to assist clubs in developing inclusive provision • Coach development programmes • Classification training and clinics • BUCS competitions and events • Involvement and engagement of disabled students throughout

  9. People • To support local delivery, the recruitment and deployment of a small number of positions within individual HEI’s or clusters of HEI’s • At a national level, an additional BUCS staff member at co-ordinator level to support implementation
