SUPPORT US

Helping us create life-changing opportunities through adaptive skiing

Ski Ability NI is a volunteer-run charity supporting disabled athletes across Northern Ireland.
Every week, we see confidence grow, friendships form and barriers fall — but none of this happens without the generosity of funders, sponsors and supporters.

Your support helps us provide:

• safe, inclusive training sessions

• specialist adaptive equipment

• coaching and safeguarding provision

• opportunities for athletes to progress

• life-changing experiences through the On the Snow Project

By supporting Ski Ability NI, you’re not just funding a club —

you’re empowering athletes, strengthening families and building an inclusive community.

Why Your Support Matters

Our athletes rely on:

✔ trained adaptive ski coaches

✔ safeguarding and welfare support

✔ accessible facilities

✔ financial support for specialist equipment

✔ opportunities to ski on snow (essential for Special Olympics progression)

A single sit-ski can cost £4,000 and up, before travel, insurance or maintenance.

Some families simply cannot meet these costs alone.

Your support removes those barriers.
