The Wheelchair Football Association (WFA) is the governing body for the sport of Powerchair Football in England. Powerchair Football is a unique sport that provides opportunities for people with a high level of impairment to access football. This means it is the only active team participation sport for Powerchair users. The sport is fast paced, dynamic and enjoyable to watch. Due to the unique nature of the Powerchair Football it allows all ages, disabilities and both genders to compete together. We do not just provide sporting opportunity, powerchair football also provides a great social opportunity for the players and their families as they experience the highs and lows of participating in the nation’s favourite sport. With 45 Powerchair Football clubs across England and a competition pathway from recreational activity, into a National League, up to representing England on the world stage, the sport continues to grow rapidly. The WFA are currently delivering a three year Inclusive Sport project, funded by Sport England. We have three regional development officers who are out running Powerchair Football festivals, delivering coaching sessions, recruiting new players and helping to set up new clubs. We could talk about Powerchair Football all day, but here is what some of the players say: Niamh O’Reilly, Sevenoaks PFC: I realised that through Powerchair football not only did I benefit from the joys of physically participating in sport again but during that time I had become far more sociable and had made many new relationships with fellow players. I had also blossomed into a far more sociable and happy character and found myself feeling more confident in both who I am and in my body, something I had never previously felt. Jon Bolding, England Captain: “I have been lucky to play the sport for a number of years. I have dreamt that one day I would be able to lead my Country and to pit my wits against the best of the Powerchair footballing world. The sport has given me so much and you just can’t beat the feeling of scoring goals!” Your donations will be used to change the lives of people who would not have been able to play the sport they love without your assistance. The WFA would like to thank you on behalf of all the players, coaches, fans and staff for your support for Powerchair Football. Thank you, you are amazing!

Each year more than 300 cancer patients have to travel from the Basingstoke area to either Southampton or Guildford for radiotherapy treatment because there is currently no local facility for patients in the catchment area of the North Hampshire Hospital. This may involve daily return journeys five days a week for up to six weeks at a time when patients are recovering from surgery and often also from chemotherapy treatment. The Friends of Basingstoke & North Hampshire Radiotherapy Cancer Service began fundraising in 2009 and the charity RadCan was registered in 2011. Since 2009 the group have lobbied local healthcare representatives on the need for a local facility and it has now been confirmed that a dedicated cancer centre will be built in the north of Hampshire. The Centre will provide chemotherapy, radiotherapy, palliative care, core therapies and complementary therapies.
