A group of volunteers in Bridgend County have come together to champion inclusivity and provide a voice for differently abled people. Bridgend Inclusive Network Group, BING, works closely with local charities, community groups and sports clubs to provide awareness training that enables these organisations to put on more inclusive activities.
The training that BING provides is free to attend for those who work or volunteer in organisations that are already putting on, or plan to put on inclusive activities, and the latest training brochure can be found here.
BING also organises their own activities and has recently offered online yoga and crafting sessions, as well as sending out activity packs and football packs to children with disabilities and young carers across Bridgend County Borough. These activities were made possible with funding support from BAVO, Bridgend County Borough Council and Welsh Government.
To be sent BING’s training brochure or to find out about upcoming activities, please email bridgendinclusivenetworkgroup@outlook.com. You can also follow BING on social media for updates:
