Disabled people’s health and wellbeing event

Disability Rights UK, our partners in the Health and Wellbeing Alliance, have been running a flagship programme called Get Yourself Active funded by Sport England for four years now and will be launching all of our learning and resources at an event in London on 25 March. The event will have speakers from NHS England, Sport England as well as individual experiences and a panel of experts including disabled person’s organisations.

As part of this work, Disability Rights UK have supported Professor Brett Smith to produce some physical activity guidelines for disabled people through Public Health England which they hope to roll out through our networks in the next phase of work. They are also launching the findings of their social worker guidelines evaluation which will form a big part of their programme of work going forward.
