As a user-led organisation, our members are always at the heart of what we do. Their shared passion for sport and equality drives us to influence long term change and improve the matchday experience for all disabled sports fans.
That’s why we are very excited to announce that after a period of consultation, we are now ready to invite DSAs to sign up for Level Playing Field Membership.
Unlike before, there is no membership fee… It’s completely free!
(However, if you would like to donate, we would recommend a £15-£30 voluntary contribution. Click the link to donate)
So why should your DSA be a Level Playing Field Member? Good Question.
You will receive.
· A regular LPF DSA Newsletter – Focusing on supporting DSA growth and development by sharing best practice case studies, DSA profiles and interviews. There will also be advice and ‘how to’ guides.
