Access Unconquered is a UK-wide programme from the Veterans’ Foundation and Invictus Games Birmingham 2027, harnessing the power of adaptive sport to create lasting change for wounded, injured and sick (WIS) veterans and serving personnel.
Through Adaptive Sport Grants, the Veterans’ Foundation is committing £250,000 to organisations that can make adaptive sport accessible to more WIS veterans and serving personnel, removing barriers to participation and creating opportunities to improve physical and mental health, build confidence and connection.
Grants of between £1,000 and £15,000 are available to eligible organisations across the UK.
What they'll fund
Access Unconquered is focused on enabling more WIS veterans and serving personnel to access and participate in adaptive sport.
Through the Adaptive Sport Grants, they will fund organisations whose work supports the wider goals of Invictus Games Birmingham 2027:
- Inspire Recovery: Foster holistic pathways that empower and support participants to embrace a new reality, embark on a recovery journey, and reach their full potential through the transformative power of sport and community.
- Improve Resilience: Enhance resilience of Armed Forces wounded, injured and sick and their families by understanding and overcoming barriers, preparing for the future and successfully adapting to life after injury or illness.
- Influence Reconnection: Positively influence reconnection and social integration of the armed forces wounded, injured and sick, realising mutual benefits and enabling communities to thrive.
