Disability Participation


​​​​​​​ParaFed Canterbury is one of the leading regional Para sports providers in New Zealand. Operating since 1967, we are a not-for-profit organisation, focusing on people with physical or visual impairments. We offer a variety of programs and services to our members including Para sports, adaptive equipment, sports wheelchairs and children’s after-school programs. In addition, we offer a number of non-sports based programs such as hydrotherapy pool sessions and taxi fare discounts. If you have always wanted to be involved in sport, but have been unsure where to start, then we are here to help you.
