The Panathlon Foundation
The Panathlon Foundation is a UK-based charity dedicated to promoting the values of sport and physical activity among young people. Established with the vision of ensuring that every child has the opportunity to participate in sports, the foundation works tirelessly to break down barriers to access and inclusion.
Through a variety of programmes and initiatives, The Panathlon Foundation aims to empower children, particularly those with disabilities, by providing them with the chance to engage in competitive sports. The foundation believes that participation in sports not only enhances physical health but also fosters essential life skills such as teamwork, resilience, and confidence.
Core Activities:
- Inclusive Sports Events: Organising competitions that cater to children of all abilities.
- Training and Resources: Providing training for teachers and coaches to ensure inclusive practices in schools.
- Community Engagement: Collaborating with local organisations to promote sports participation.
The Panathlon Foundation also focuses on raising awareness about the importance of physical activity in schools and communities. By advocating for policy changes and supporting schools in implementing inclusive sports programmes, the foundation strives to create a more equitable sporting landscape.
With a dedicated team of volunteers and supporters, The Panathlon Foundation continues to inspire and motivate young people across the UK. Their commitment to fostering a love for sports and promoting inclusivity is at the heart of everything they do.
