The aim is to identify the system changes required over the next 12–16 years to ensure that performance sport environments are inclusive of intersectional communities of disabled people. This work will:

  • Define the current parameters of para performance sport in Wales.
  • Assess the maturity of para performance environments across Welsh National Governing Bodies (NGBs), DSW-led provision (NGB-function and programme delivery), and performance development events currently outside the scope of UK Sport and Sport Wales performance funding.
  • Project the trajectory of resourcing requirements to sustain and grow para performance sport.
  • Make recommendations to support the transition and/or retention of responsibility for para performance pathways from DSW to NGBs, ensuring long-term sustainability and inclusivity.
