Each year many thousands of men, women and children become disabled due to an accident or illness. WheelPower is the national charity for wheelchair sport and helps these people and many others with disabilities to achieve their sporting dreams.

WheelPower provides accessible and inclusive facilities at Stoke Mandeville Stadium, the home of British Wheelchair Sport and birthplace of the Paralympic Movement.  Our facilities include an Athletics Arena, Sports Hall, Swimming Pool and Fitness Centre.  On site accommodation in the Olympic Lodge and Olympic Village is suitable for a wide range of disabilities and is complemented by meeting and conference facilities and catering facilities for events of all sizes.

Transforming Lives Through Sport
Each year WheelPower organises a range of events for young and newly disabled people.  Whether it is one of our Feel Inspired Primary or Junior Sports Camps or the National Junior Games we give disablled children aged 5-18 years the chance to find a sport they love and increase their confidence and skills.  We provide newly paralysed men and women from around the UK with an opportunity to access sport and physical activity and our annual Inter Spinal Unit Games support people within one year of their spinal injury.

Sport has the power to transform lives and we support a number of Peer Mentor Physical Activity Advisors within spinal injury centres around the country who support the rehabilitation of patients.

Our facilities at Stoke Mandeville Stadium are visited by 50,000 disabled people each year who enjoy the chance to enjoy being active as part of a healthy life.
