This is a fantastic opportunity for people with a visual impairment to try a variety of sports in a friendly and supportive environment.
The visual impairment sports day aims to provide an introduction to sport and engage participants in sport. RNIB, Haggeye, Guide Dogs Scotland and Visibility are supporting Scottish Disability Sport and governing body partners the Scottish Football Association, JudoScotland, Scottish Swimming and Scottish Athletics, Goalball UK and Blazing Saddles to provide a quality experience to participants on the day. This unique opportunity is funded by the BIG Lottery Fund.
Many people with a visual impairment are not aware of the opportunities available to them in their local area. Scottish Disability Sport Regional Managers will be on hand on the day to raise awareness and support participants to get involved in their chosen sport in their local area. If you would like to have a chat about the event please do not hesitate to contact us.
Sports on offer throughout the day are: athletics, bowls, cycling, football, goalball, judo, swimming and tennis.
