An invitation to help develop a Disability Active Recreation and Sport Strategy

Disability Active Recreation and Sport Strategy

Sport NZ is working with Lumin consultants to develop a national strategy for disability active recreation and sport. We have engaged with people and organisations who have key roles and insights into the disability and/or active recreation and sport sectors. We have established and used a Reference Group with experience of disability, and disability active recreation and/or sport. We have hosted workshops, conducted interviews and run focus groups. As a result of these, we have developed a draft strategy, with priorities, objectives and actions.

You are invited to participate in a survey to share your experiences of disability active recreation and/or sport in New Zealand. We are also seeking feedback on the draft strategy. Please forward this email to others and ask them to share their thoughts.

We want to hear from you whether you:
– are a disabled person
– are a family member or support a disabled person
– are a volunteer involved in active recreation, sport or disability provision
– work in disability, active recreation and/or sport.

There are three parts to the survey:

– some information about you
– information about active recreation and/or sport experiences
– your feedback on the proposed disability active recreation and sport strategy.

You are welcome to answer some or all of the questions. Your responses are anonymous. Any identifying features will be removed. The survey will take between 5 – 20 minutes to finish, depending on which questions you answer.

You can complete the survey for yourself, or on behalf of or with another person if they need assistance.

Our survey will be available until 14 September 2018. Once the survey has finished, the information will be analysed, and the Disability Active Recreation and Sport Strategy will be finalised.
