We operate a wide range of Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) programs, and our instructors are specially trained to engage with vulnerable groups.
Our instructors are highly qualified and hand-picked for their expertise and ability to inspire and build confidence. We are on a mission to keep everyone active.

Are you fully inclusive?
We offer partners the opportunity to be inclusive, offering diversity of choice from schools, to leisure chains to care homes. We support carers’ networks, local befriending and volunteering services and offer opportunities for people with SEND to build up their skills for leadership programmes and Levelling Up. SDO are also keen to provide work experience and placement opportunities for SEND young people.
We further connect with other organisations which support specific groups we are targeting – for example we are working with British Blind Sport, FND Hope UK, Active Surrey, Sport England, Everyone Active, Places for People, Freedom Leisure and are now celebrating some 60 or so partnerships.
