We need your help to get our athletes to Tokyo

It costs £500,000 to get the DeaflympicsGB Team to the Deaflympics and they receive no funding from the UK Government.

Athletes and teams need to pay for training, support teams, accommodation, kit, flights, insurance, pre-event camps and competitions and support teams such as physios and team Dr’s.

We need your help to get the DeaflympicsGB Team to the games and give these elite athletes their best possible chance of winning medals for our country.

You can help by donating directly, fundraising or sponsoring part of the team costs.
