#117 Why can't we: raising awarness of disability sport in the media with Peter Harding

from The Mindset Athlete Podcast · host James Roberts

In 2012, Peter had a brain injury. Before that, he had played football from the age of 4 and made it to a high level by playing for Fulham's Development Centre. After his brain injury, he had to learn everything again and he realised that he couldn't play football anymore. In 2012 the Paralympics also happened and he saw disability football for the first time. At this point, he realised that disability sports weren't getting the recognition they deserve. As a result, he created Why Can't We. They are now setting up disability teams and events as well as using social media to raise awareness. Please use #wcw and get involved in promoting disability sport so everyone knows about it. You can learn more about Peter via his website whycantwe.co.uk and connect through his Twitter.  For more information about Mind Set Game connect with us on Facebook @mindsetgamepodcast For more information about James Roberts (the host of the podcast), visit fitamputee.co.uk and connect with me on Facebook, Twitter and Instagram
