Para Snow Sports Wales

We are an entirely voluntary organisation whose aim is to bring the joys of snow sports to all people.

We train volunteers and work with disabled people on dry ski slopes in Wales. Holidays and courses are arranged on snow in Europe.

Specialised equipment is used where necessary with helpers being specifically trained in its use. We are always looking for helpers whether you are able to ski or not.

On the social side, we have Christmas parties, summer BBQ’s, residential weekends and have FUN.

In doing so, people develop confidence, fitness and social skills, which improves their quality of life. It also gives the volunteer the opportunity to improve their skiing and meet new friends.

Before any new members join our sessions, we always like to have a chat and learn a little about the individuals’ condition and difficulties. This enables us to discuss and assess how we can best prepare for when they attend the session for the first time. It also helps to ensure that their first experience is a safe and enjoyable one.
