               <p><p>Community Integrated Care, one of Britain\u2019s biggest social care charities, partnered with UK Sport and ParalympicsGB, forming a groundbreaking alliance to discover the barriers that exclude disabled people from live events and the routes to dismantle them.<\/p>\n<p>This world-first programme successfully unlocked insights that will transform the sports sector domestically and internationally, born out of a shared vision &#8211; creating a future where everyone, regardless of their disability or background, can thrive at events and reap the societal benefits they generate.<\/p>\n<p>For Community Integrated Care, a charity delivering eight million hours of support annually to people who face deep-rooted challenges, this represented a once-in-a-generation opportunity to enable change.<\/p>\n<p>The programme enables a radical step change in thinking, behaviours and planning around disability access and inclusion in sport.<br \/>\nWhilst sports make exceptional efforts to include disabled people, there is a reality that this frequently only reaches the most independent, engaged audiences.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
