It creates a level playing field between disabilities and allows for enjoyment of sport and more importantly friendship and fun!”
Simon Pearson, Sirus Managing Director commented “We are really pleased to be supporting such a great sport, especially on a local level. Having dedicated the last 15 years to designing innovative vehicle conversions for wheelchair users, we are delighted to see the sport go from strength to strength. Powerchair Football provides sporting opportunities for people with high-level impairment. At Sirus we design vehicle conversions for people who drive from their wheelchair, or remain in their wheelchair whilst travelling, so many of our customers play the sport”.
