Open: Sport and Recreation Survey

Australians love sport and active recreation but research has shown that people with disabilities participate less than the rest of the community. University of Technology Sydney would like to know whether or not you participate in sport and active recreation and the reasons for your participation. The findings will be used to review current approaches to sport and recreation and to improve access provisions.
