This role is funded through this partnership.

We are looking for a dedicated Officer to develop and strengthen relationships with identified National Governing Bodies of sport (NGBs) and undertake concentrated work with the five most popular participation sports for blind and partially sighted people, which are swimming, athletics, tennis, football, goalball and one key development area – blind rugby and VI rugby.
