Doing a good job: Youth volunteers engage with disabled children to provide equal access to high quality sports and physical education via the British Council¿s Sports for All Youth Sport Leadership Project.
UNDERSTANDING the crucial need to encourage children with disabilities to participate in physical education and sports, with a focus on providing equal access to inclusive activities, British Council Malaysia recently awarded grants worth RM40,000 to five deserving special needs organisations through its flagship Sports for All programme.
Designed to introduce guidelines whilst reinforcing the importance of child protection in any disabled sports activity, this year’s programme included a new component, the Sports for All Youth Sport Leadership Project, which aimed to encourage youth volunteerism through engagement with children with special needs in sports activities.
