Goals Beyond Grass provide inclusive and accessible social and physical activity sessions to the most vulnerable people in Gloucestershire, including but not limited to: The Elderly, People with Disabilities (Both Physical and Mental), People with Mental Health Conditions, People from Disadvantaged Socioeconomic Backgrounds, and anyone else who needs our sessions.
The donation funds our sports coaching, allowing up to 70 Hours of Disability Specific and Disability Accessible sports sessions to run throughout Gloucestershire. These sessions cater for over 1000 participants every month, helping to improve both the mental and physical health of participants and their family members alike.
The £1,000 will support 1 month of coaching for both our Inclusive Cycling, and PAN Football Programmes, running 4 hours of PAN Football Sessions, for 30+ participants every week, and 60 hours of Inclusive Cycling Sessions, with an average of 12 Cyclists/Hour. These sessions provide over 850 opportunities for vulnerable people in Gloucestershire to get active, helping to improve their lives through their physical and mental health improving.
Goals Beyond Grass provide inclusive sports and social activity sessions for people with disabilities, elderly people, disadvantaged children, and people with mental health conditions, throughout Gloucestershire. Our specialised sports enable everyone to be active, both physically and socially, with sports such as Inclusive Cycling and Powerchair Football enabling everyone to participate.
The grant will help to provide a full month of coaching costs, allowing the income from the sessions to directly advance the sessions, such as providing new kit (footballs and bike maintenance equipment), as well as advancing the skills of our staff and volunteers, through training and learning opportunities.
We are incredibly grateful for the Movement for Good initiative, supplying us with the opportunity for this.
