Story
At Para Dance UK, our mission is to provide disabled people, children and adults alike, with the opportunity to experience the joy, fun and excitement that participating in dance uniquely brings, in a safe, inclusive and supportive environment.
In 2020/21, despite Covid, we were able to give the gift of dance to over 9,000 disabled children and adults across the UK. However, with your support, we can do more, much more! Over the next five years, we are planning to extend our reach to 20,000 disabled children and adults p.a. across the UK!
I am stroke survivor and haven't danced like this is a long time! I was feeling very lonely and was experiencing anxiety. Taking part in the Para Dance UK inclusive dance sessions has really helped me. The sessions have made me feel happy, safe, and I have made lots of new friends.
Inclusive dance sessions from Para Dance UK gave my 6-year-old son the same platform as everyone else to express himself. He has multiple limb loss and looks forward to every session.
To take part in Para Dance UK's sessions which have been designed specifically for our group of wheelchair users, by qualified and trained staff in this specialism, was amazing. The sessions have made a difference to over 50% of our full-time students at our small college as it has enabled them to access, enjoy and learn new skills from these inclusive dance sessions.
Would you please consider your best gift to Para Dance UK at this time? Would you please also tell your family and friends? Be proud of what you are doing and encourage them to do the same, to transform the lives of disabled children and adults with the gift of dance. Thank you!
