From tennis and padel tennis to swimming and athletics, we offer something to keep fit and have fun for everyone.

Special Olympics and Grace Eyre

Grace Eyre works closely with Special Olympics and oversees the coordination of Special Olympics Sussex, the local charitable branch of Special Olympics Great Britain (GB).

We work together to put on a range of community sports programmes across Sussex, providing a pathway from those starting out in a sport to those wanting to compete at either local, regional or national level.

Special Olympics Great Britain is a non-profit organisation and the largest provider of year-round sports training and athletic competition in summer and winter sports for children and adults with a learning disability.
