Sport NZ is working in partnership to create a more inclusive system for all tamariki and rangatahi, including those with disabilities.

The New Disability Inclusion Fund is open to national and regional organisations, those with experience in using play, active recreation and sport to engage and support disabled tamariki and rangatahi, and those wishing to explore new and innovative opportunities in the space.

The fund is aimed at investing in work that leads to sustainable changes across the disability spectrum, including physical disabilities, and specifically aims to address gaps identified in providing participation opportunities for intellectually disabled tamariki and rangatahi; participation opportunities for tamariki and rangatahi who have invisible impairments; and inclusionary practices for all impairments.
