Story
On Saturday August 16th, our team will take part in a triathlon sprint at Dorney Lake, aiming to raise £1,000 for Disability Snowsport UK. The picture gallery is from 2024, when we supported the DSUK team at Dorney. This year, we're adding our own team to try and raise more funds.
This is the UK’s only mass-participation sports series for the everyday superhero - the UK’s 16 million people with disabilities, and their friends and families.
The Iglu Ski team comprises:
Jeanette Chippington OBE, multi-medal-winning Paralympian
Clair Stokes
Louise Newton
With Sidekicks
Hannah Bolger
Stewart Chippington
Superheroes Series is the UK's one and only disability sports series for the Everyday Superhero! The mission is simple: to create fun, full-throttle, mass-participation sports events where people with disabilities – AKA Everyday Superheroes – call the shots & don’t have to worry about cut-off times or equipment restrictions. Everyone can do it - all they ask is that at least one team member considers themselves to have a disability of any kind.
Disability Snowsport UK have over 40 year's experience teaching adaptive snowsports, with a vision of removing barriers through skiing & snowboarding.
We believe that everyone has the right to access the unique physical, mental & social benefits of snowsport, regardless of disability, injury, or experience.
We operate ski schools at various locations throughout the UK as well as delivering opportunities to ski and snowboard in a mountain environment worldwide; supported by a fantastic team of highly-qualified adaptive instructors.
