Our Service

SML provides high-quality, bite-sized CPD programs designed to help physical activity instructors (both professional and volunteer) better support disabled participants. 

​

SML was created in response to the lack of accessible, specialist training covering specific physical and mental disabilities. Research from Active Alliance found that only 2% of disabled people seek advice about being physically active from community volunteer coaches, while just 17% turn to professional sports and physical activity instructors. This highlights the need for greater confidence, knowledge, and disability-specific education across the sector. Due to a lack of knowledge and trust among disabled athletes and instructors. 

​

Rather than offering broad, generic training, SML delivers focused, research-informed CPD programs that address individual disabilities and conditions. SML's flexible online learning is designed to fit around busy schedules, equipping teachers, coaches, fitness professionals, and other physical activity instructors with the practical knowledge and confidence to create safe, inclusive, and enjoyable experiences for every disabled participant.
