Nominees Wanted For The Peter Woodall Sports Award

19 October 2015 by Volunteer Placement

Each year, the Learning Disabilities Partnership Board gives an award to people with learning disabilities, who inspire others with their dedication to sport and activities in Sheffield. It’s not necessarily for someone who has achieved grand things or lots of medals – but those who have achieved their best despite the barriers they face. This award is named after Peter Woodall who died in 2012 aged 77. Peter was a keen swimmer who trained with the Sheffield Otters swimming club and won medals at swimming galas around the country. If you would like to nominate an individual or team for the Peter Woodall Sports Award please see the Nomination Letter . The last two winners have been men, so the Partnership Board would welcome more nominations for women and teams this year.

Disability Sheffield is a forward-thinking, energetic organisation doing a lot of positive work in Sheffield. I have no doubt they will continue to do so for a long time to come.

A fantastic presentation thought provoking and good questions from the floor around promoting this film/message to the general public not just professionals.

When I moved to Sheffield nearly five years ago it was my "go to" organisation. I expect it to stay that way. All the staff and volunteers seem to pull out little gems of effort that disabled people like me couldn't do without. Professionally and personally - I love em :)
