Creating Truly Accessible Fitness: A Deaf-Led Approach

About this event

Deaf inclusion in fitness goes far beyond ramps and subtitles.

In Greater Manchester alone, over 125,000 Deaf and hard of hearing people live in the community — yet fewer than 2% access fitness regularly. This is a huge, missed opportunity.

Join us for an eye-opening session where I will be talking to David Edgington, Director of Worldwide Deaf Gym — the UK’s first Deaf-led fitness consultancy for Creating Truly Accessible Fitness: A Deaf-Led Approach.

Explore the WDG Certification & Consultancy scheme

Learn why generic inclusion efforts fall short

Discover how Deaf PTs are reshaping the sector

Take action to become truly accessible

During this practical and insightful session, David will share how Worldwide Deaf Gym helps gyms, leisure centres, and health clubs deliver real, measurable inclusion — not just tick-box compliance.

This webinar will introduce the WDG Certification Scheme, consultancy pathway, and training model — all designed to help your organisation improve access, communication, and confidence for Deaf users.
