It will include the Football Association's Disability Coaching Course and Sportscoach UK's Multi-skills Inclusion Workshop.

There will also be come and try sessions for disabled participants, and those involved, or seeking to be involved in delivering sporting opportunities for participants with special needs.

This programme will include hockey, boccia (seated bowls), netball and football.
