The sessions focus on helping young people with sight and hearing impairments, as well as those with complex needs.

Sessions are taking place at the Barnet and Southgate College, Learning Disability Centre of Excellence from 6pm to 7pm every Monday, until February 27.

Parents, families and carers are being invited to attend the sessions with the participants.

In partnership with the Tottenham Hotspur Foundation, the charitable arm of the Premier League football club, Sense are looking to increase opportunities for people with deafblindness to participate in sport and physical activity through its Sporting Sense project.

The sessions have received a grant of £424,958 ($530,347/€493,526) from Sport England, which is hoped will help to influence the development and delivery of local physical activity plans, which will include working alongside deafblind people.

"Participation in sport has significant physical, mental and emotional benefits, but unfortunately people with sight and hearing impairment encounter barriers accessing it," said Taylor Huxster, regional sports coordinator at Sense.

"The multisports sessions provide attendees with the opportunity to try different sports made accessible for people with sight and hearing impairments."

The sessions are free to attend and open to anyone aged 14 and over with a visual or hearing impairment, although organisers state that places are limited.

It is hoped the sessions will encourage young people to increase their participation in sports by giving attendees the chance to try a range of inclusive sports, including hockey, tennis, football and cricket.

London and the West Midlands are two of the key areas that the project will focus on, with Sense set to deliver a number of activities across the regions May 2018.
