UK DEAF SPORT

#DeafActiveOnline

UK Deaf Sport are keen to keep you moving! With so many options out there that aren’t accessible to Deaf users, we are working with other organisations and trainers to use the hashtag #DeafActiveOnline to help share and grow accessible activities. 

UK Deaf Sport are proud to be leading and growing online physical activities to make sure deaf people stay active.

We are trying to do this in 3 main ways:

  1. Promoting and Signposting any activities for deaf people online by others – consistently using our hashtag #DeafActiveOnline
  2. Encouraging deaf Trainers/Instructors to do more online activities by giving financial help and technical advice.
  3. Learning and sharing – monitoring and evaluating data about what works and what is needed, and sharing with all key players.

Have a look below at the range of online activity and trainers you can get involved in.
