Inclusive Sports Opportunities in Powys: Embrace Active Living
Although the Paralympic Games have concluded, there remains a wealth of inclusive sports activities available throughout Powys. Notably, we are home to local heroes like Rob Davies, a silver medallist in table‌ tennis from Brecon, alongside the retired wheelchair rugby icon Jim Roberts from Welshpool. However, you don’t need to be an elite athlete to reap the benefits of physical activity. Recognizing this, Sport Powys has launched Let’s Go Powys/Amdani Powys—an initiative aimed at helping residents discover diverse sporting pursuits.
