Disability Snowsport is the UK's leading charity in providing access to adaptive skiing and snowboarding for people with disabilities. To conquer a mountain is an achievement for any skier, but for people with learning and physical disabilities, it is an incredible feat. Disability Snowsport UK are leading the way to make snowsports inclusive for all abilities - through special instruction, support and adaptive equipment.
DSUK instructors and volunteers have enabled thousands of individuals of all ages with any form of disability, from learning difficulties and autism to physical disabilities, to enjoy the thrills of the slopes throughout the UK and abroad.
Each year DSUK organise overseas activity weeks which cover a host of countries across Europe, the USA and North America, including resorts such as Breckenridge (USA), Niederau & Mayrhofen (Austria), Villars (Swiss Alps), Soldeu (Andorra) and La Plagne (France). The activity weeks provide an opportunity for those with disabilities to realise their potential.
DSUK also have local groups throughout the UK providing disabled skiing for those who are unable to travel abroad. Access is all year round on artificial slopes and indoor snozones. For more information about groups meeting in the UK, check out the Local Groups page on the DSUK website or contact sophiewood@disabilitysnowsport.org.uk.
Alongside our commitment to making snowsport more accessible, we've worked with DSUK to approve five of our properties, according to disability access requirements:
In conjunction with DSUK, Crystal Ski will use its power as the No. 1 tour operator in Europe to increase awareness of disabled skiing and snowboarding, as well as improving access and offering practical on-site assistance for disabled skiers.
