Event Information

Introduction

Perth & Kinross Disability Sport are delighted to invite women and girls of all ages with a physical or learning disability, visual impairment, hearing loss, or related conditions to our Women & Girls in Sport Come & Try Festival.

Working in partnership with inclusive local community sports clubs and organisations, including Live Active Leisure, this event offers the opportunity to explore a variety of sports and physical activities in a friendly, welcoming, and supportive environment. Our aim is to encourage more women and girls to get involved in sport and physical activity, celebrate participation at all levels, and help break down the barriers that can lead to lower activity rates among women and girls.

Participants will also have the chance to chat with us about other sports or activities they may be interested in trying in the future.

As with all Perth & Kinross Disability Sport activities, there is no cost to participate.
