BPA announces £25,000 ‘Birthday Bursary’

Does your rowing club offer significant opportunities for people to take part in disability sport? To celebrate the 25th Anniversary of the British Paralympic Association, BT has created the BPA Birthday Bursary – a fund of £25,000 to be distributed between five UK sports clubs.

Nominations for the competition are open to any amateur sports club operating in the UK which offers “significant opportunities for disabled people to take part in sport”.

Each of the five winning clubs will win £5,000, with the winners set to be revealed in the Sunday Telegraph on September 7th.
