A1: Celebrating sport is vital in raising profile, of disability sports. Sacrifices/barriers overcome can be lost in a results focused 🌎, but the motivation generated from recognising even the tiniest success of an athlete with a disability can stay with them forever.#sporthour

A.1 We need to ensure that people at all levels of sport feel celebrated. Young people taking part in sport for the first time up to athletes competing at the highest level. This can be the memory that someone has that encourages sport for life #SportHour Sportscotland

#SportHour sport isn't just about the elite levels, celebrating every level can inspire and motivate people to remain involved and active for a lifetime. Never underestimate the power of positive words or recognition sportscotland Scottish Disability Sport @sported_Scot The National Lottery Community Fund Scotland

A2 #sporthour the disability sport community get behind every athlete to provide support and to celebrate achievement like no other I've ever known. Over inflated egos are few and far between, overcoming many barriers before you're on the court, pitch or track will do that.

A3 #SportHour creativity demonstrated by Dundee Dragons WSC specifically Gemma Lumsdaine (she/her) Tayside Dynamos PFC Dundee United Para-Sports Club Dundee Boccia, Discovery Swimming to engage families to stay active and reduce isolation was exemplary!
