Blind Sports Australia launches free Active Play Toolkit for BLV Kids on World Sight Day
On World Sight Day, we are proud to release our latest toolkit of activity cards specially designed to assist educators and coaches working with children and young people to conduct a range of activities and games to help create equal access to sport.
At Blind Sports Australia, we believe everyone has the right to participate in sport and physical activity. And often, we find it’s a matter of educating people about how to include people who are blind and vision impaired in sporting activities.
Our Active Play Toolkit for BLV Kids is available as a free resource online to download as a PDF or as and accessible word version.
