The Julian Budd Kids in Sport Trust is delighted to support PACE who provide intensive programmes for children with physical disabilities.

Kids in Sport have funded PACE’s swimming costs for the whole year thus enabling these disabled kids to enjoy the freedom, swimming provides them with. These costs cover pool hire, instructors, and support staff to help the kids, life guards and transportation to and from the pool.

The children at PACE benefit greatly from accessing swimming from both as a sport and as a form of therapy. Being in water enables children with physical disabilities such as cerebral palsy and other motor disorders to move freely and enjoy swimming, sometimes the only sport they can undertake.
