Panathlon is a national charity that gives young people with disabilities and special educational needs the opportunity to take part in competitive sport. Giving participants the opportunity to represent their school in sporting competitions that they are so often otherwise denied.
Their competitive events include a full range of sports including , swimming, football, boccia, cricket and ten-pin bowling programmes. The events have a transformational impact on participants’ skills, self-esteem, confidence, health and wellbeing.
Our long-standing partnership with Panathlon has enabled them to continue to expand their programme across England and Wales, such that they are now reaching over 60,000.
The SJP community also get involved by volunteering their time to help run the sports events, with the Panathlon team.
