SEN Sports Club welcomed Tunbridge Wells MP Mike Martin to one of its inclusive sports sessions on Saturday 8 November, where he met families, chatted with coaches and even joined in with the adaptive activities. Taking place at Skinners’ Kent Primary School, the club, which runs fun, accessible sessions for children of all abilities, has become a lifeline for many local parents looking for supportive and inclusive sport.

During his visit, Mr Martin praised the initiative for its impact, calling it “a much-needed sports club in the community and an important opportunity for children who have previously struggled to access mainstream sports.” He also recognised the dedication of the coaching team and the warm, positive environment they create for families.

The visit comes at an important time for SEN Sports Ltd, which is continuing to seek funding to expand its inclusive sports opportunities across Tunbridge Wells and the wider region. The team said they were “delighted” by Mr Martin’s encouragement and his recognition of the club’s growing community value.
