About us

Enabling disabled people's ambitions 

Established in 2021, The Richard Whitehead Foundation enables disabled people's ambitions through the power of sport and physical activity. Providing access to life changing support, mentoring, information, advice, equipment and opportunities, we place the individual at the centre of everything we do. 

We work with disabled people who are facing physical and emotional challenges. We help them to identify and remove their barriers to engaging in sport and physical activity, and support them to reach their full potential. 

“By identifying and removing the barriers, we can all work together in realising your full potential and aspirations.” - Richard Whitehead MBE
