Discover Your Ability

Children of all abilities were able to discover their inner sporting star at a sports day with a difference.

Norwich community interest company Able2B, which offers fitness opportunities for people with disabilities, joined forces with Norwich School to organise the Discover Your Ability event.

It saw children and young adults with disabilities and Norwich School pupils work in pairs to complete challenges including a cycle race and an 800m run or walk.

The project began in March and has seen teamwork activities take place between the pupils and their partners.

Among the children who took part in the sports day on June 2 were twins Thomas and Daniel Bristow, nine. Despite only recently having started walking, both made it round the 800m route.

“Thank you and Just4children for your support for Sunday’s inaugural Discover Your Ability event. Without your support the day would not have been possible and also would not have achieved the excitement and spectacle that it did.” Rachael Hutchison
