To access these sessions, you will need to sign up to our disability membership programme for just £7 a month.

- Down’s syndrome.
- Partially-sighted or registered blind.
- On the autistic spectrum.
- An amputee or have a congenital limb deficiency.
- Cerebral palsy and/or require a frame.
- Deaf or hearing impairment.
- Learning disabilities.
