2024 marks the 20th year of Panathlon’s partnership with JPF. The first grant was in 2004 when fund were invested to expand Panathlon’s disability work throughout south London. 2025 will see another 10,000 young people with SEND benefit from the investment in sports competitions, coaching sessions, equipment provision and leadership opportunities across London and Essex.
Sir Jack was always passionate about competitions as seeing the determination of the young people to do their best was a reminder of us all that if you believe you can achieve, you will!
