New report highlights impact of disability funding

Sport NZ’s Disability Inclusion Fund invested $3.6 million into projects aimed at getting more disabled tamariki and rangatahi active. Our new ‘Disability Inclusion Fund Impact Report’ highlights outcomes achieved across the sector with this funding from 2022 to 2025.

16 organisations received funding to deliver inclusive programmes, create new roles and build sector capability. Thousands of disabled tamariki and rangatahi participated in physical activity – often for the first time – in environments where they felt welcome and supported.

Most projects are continuing beyond the fund, showing how inclusion is becoming part of everyday practice.
