The Birmingham Inclusive Sports Festival offers FREE fun and family-friendly sports taster days, a marketplace and inspirational stories for individuals with a range of impairments.
Designed and delivered by people with disabilities or long-term health conditions, the Birmingham Inclusive Sports Festival (BISF) brings families, carers and key agencies together to raise awareness of sport, health and wellbeing activities and to encourage people to try something new.
BISF also provides the opportunity to consult with citizens to better understand what support they need to make sport and physical activity part of their lifestyle and identify ways of making local activities even more inclusive.
