ESSEX DISABLED SPORTS FOUNDATION

About us

The Presidents Sporting Club/Essex Disabled Sports Foundation is committeed to inspiring children with special needs by providing sporting facilities that would not normally be available to them. We have now raised well over £2.5 million which has been donated to schools and organisations, such as Riding for the Disabled, to provide sporting facilities and opportunities for disabled children.

The money we raise is used to provide sports equipment, coaching and tuition, the hire of sports halls and the funding of outings and adventure type holidays.

Taking part in sport increases the children’s self confidence, physical development and self esteem and helps them meet challenges that they may face later in life.

We are registered as a charity with The Charity Commission under reference 1001176.

Our charity is committed to helping disabled children and we believe that every penny counts. That is why we have never had any paid employees, administrators, or fundraisers. We do all we can to keep our overheads as low as possible. The charity does not pay for any offices or motor vehicles, the administration of the charity is carried out at the homes of the charity’s Trustees.This ensures that we maximise the amount we can donate to the children we support.
