Sports activity sessions for adults with special needs at five venues in Kent.
5-A-Side-Fun has been providing football and sports activity sessions for adults with special needs since the late 1990's. Our inclusiveness is unique to our beliefs in that we cater for ALL abilities. Our sessions are wheelchair friendly and designed to improve health, fitness, coordination, balance and ball skills. All sessions are delivered in a fun and friendly way,and encourage communication skills, enforce teamwork, enhance social skills and self esteem, whilst making new friends.
Why the community needs usSports activities are vital for health reasons and can be extremely beneficial to some conditions, there is also a noticeable prevalence of obesity in those with special needs so any projects encouraging exercise are of prime importance. We are also very aware that many of those in attendance due to limited income and demographic placement have very limited access to appropriate sporting activities.
