Disability Inclusion

Disability Inclusion

Arc want to provide a range of resources to improve the inclusion of people with disabilities in sport at UNSW. Feel free to contact us, if you are directly or indirectly impacted by a disability and want to be more involved with a particular club, or if you want to learn how to make your club more inclusive. 

Accessibility

Accessibility

UNSW and Arc Sport utilise a range of state of the art facilities, that we are so excited to share with the sporting communities. We are currently in the process of creating maps of accessibility at all of our venues, to ensure that people are aware of any limitations in accessibility. If you have any feedback in making these spaces more inclusive, we would love to hear from you.
