    We’ve got more members who are more representative of our local community which is great. I’ve got people volunteering for roles who never volunteered before and we’re engaging coaches who were previously inactive.

    I loved the session. It was hugely relevant, massively thought provoking and very inspiring around engagement in sport and social inclusion but in a far wider way it gave us all a really refreshing take on GP’s. How we can realise our power as General Practice within a community when we might be perceiving ourselves to be relatively powerless to do anything at times.

    It's outstanding, the knowledge and awareness that this training raises, so simply and clearly by having players of all abilities sharing their experiences
