Scottish Disability Sport Week 2023

Scottish Disability Sport Week, a nationwide campaign that celebrates getting active and involved in disability sport in Scotland, takes place from Monday 27 November to Sunday 3 December.  

Here at Euan’s Guide we’re proud to be getting involved by showcasing our community’s recent reviews of sports facilities in Scotland and further afield.

We’re also asking you to get involved, by reviewing your favourite sporting venues and experiences on EuansGuide.com and sharing them on social media using #ScottishDisabilitySportWeek and tagging @euansguide and @SDS_sport. 

Scottish Disability Sport Week will showcase the intersectionality of participants within disability sport and share the message that everyone can participate in sport. The week-long campaign aims to encourage disabled people to improve their wellbeing by being more physically active, in a way that suits them.   

2023 is the first year of Scottish Disability Sport Week and already over 50 partners, local authorities and branches across Scotland have committed to support the campaign, which aims to highlight and promote the opportunities and the impact physical activity can have on individuals, communities, clubs and society across the country.  

Scottish Disability Sport’s CEO, Gavin MacLeod, said: “Scottish Disability Sport is delighted to be working closely with a diverse range of partners from across Scotland to co-ordinate the inaugural Scottish Disability Sport Week. This partnership approach will provide us with a strong platform to communicate the massive benefits of participation in physical activity and sport for people with disabilities.”  

MacLeod added, “It is our hope that this campaign will encourage more people with disabilities, from all communities and backgrounds, to become more active.”  

There are different themes for each day Scottish Disability Sport Week which will provide a focused discussion which will take the campaign up to Sunday 3 December, which concludes the week on International Day of Disabled People.
