INCLUSIVE sport summer camps are being held across south Essex.

Sessions, organised by Sport for Confidence along with Action for Children and Essex Short Breaks, will run at four leisure centres across Essex and will provide opportunities for young people aged 0-25years to take part in a range of fully adaptive, accessible sporting activities including multi sports, dodgeball, boccia and New Age Kurling.

Every session will be delivered by a health professional and a sports coach to ensure the needs of each individual are catered for. Carers and siblings are also very welcome to attend and get involved.

Lyndsey Barrett, Occupational Therapist and Founder at Sport For Confidence, says: “Sport and physical activity has so much to offer everyone. This summer there is no reason why anybody should miss out on all the fun. Our sessions are fully inclusive and focused on fun and laughter. As well as learning some new skills, there are also opportunities to meet new people and enjoy the social side of sport.”

Sessions begin week commencing July 23 and run for six weeks at Basildon Sporting Village on Fridays from 1.30pm to 3.30pm, Hadleigh Park on Mondays from 1.30pm until 3.3pm and Waterside Farm Leisure Centre, Canvey on Wednesday from 1pm until 3pm.

Sessions cost £5 and participants are welcome to attend all or some at any of the venues hosting the programme.
