About us
#TotalAccess | #AccessibAll AccessibAll has established itself as the leading voice on access and inclusion within sport. Our approach is to take away existing barriers. We use 'total access' as our focus, harnessing the power of sport to act as a catalyst for disability-inclusive change in wider society. We work closely with stakeholders right across the game - from the grassroots to the boardrooms - to spread our message of #TotalAccess. AccessibAll is working with supporters, clubs and governing bodies towards one clear aim - a more accessible and inclusive matchday experience for disabled supporters across the globe. Disabled people have many important roles to play across the game - not just as fans and players but also as coaches, employees, administrators, decision makers and leaders. Since 2009, AccessibAll has continued to change the lives of disabled people through the unique power of live sport. More disabled fans than ever before are now able to enjoy live sport alongside their friends and family. Clubs, leagues and national associations are increasingly becoming more aware of the importance of access and inclusion, and sport's international governing bodies have outlined their commitment to a game that is accessible, inclusive and welcoming for all. Our vision is a world where disabled people are a key part of the global sporting landscape, as fans, employees, volunteers and leaders, so that everyone has equal opportunities to contribute in an accessible, inclusive and welcoming environment.

Thank you to Off The Pitch for the opportunity to discuss the mission of AccessibAll and the crucial steps we’re taking to ensure #stadiums are more inclusive and accessible for all. As a non-profit, in collaboration with UEFA our aim is to empower football and sports stakeholders to enhance #accessibility and #inclusivity for disabled fans, driving positive change across the industry. Key features shared: 🔵 We’re helping clubs get ready for the European Accessibility Act (EAA):, a transformative European Union 🇪🇺 law taking effect next June, that requires stadiums to be more accessible. 🔵 In Europe, partnering with UEFA, we conduct accessibility audits and offer training to support clubs in meeting – and exceeding – new legal standards. 🔵 Disabled fans represent an untapped audience with significant potential, and improved accessibility is both a social responsibility and a smart business move. 🔵 From infrastructure to education on non-visible disabilities, our work benefits all, including temporarily injured fans and those with diverse needs. 🔵 Our 15 years journey started with a commitment to removing barriers for all fans, and today, our work spans over 100 venues worldwide. Together, let’s make sports spaces more #accessibAll! You want to know more' join us on the 13th and 14th of November at our Global Summit.

It's been almost a week now since the most inclusive UEFA Champions League Match took place! For many attendees and disabled fans, this was their very first chance to experience the thrill of a live football match. Let’s keep working to ensure these moments aren’t just exceptions but become the norm. Every initiative, no matter how small, moves us one step closer to a world where sport is accessible to all. We proud of our movement, we proud of of our actions! We extend our sincere gratitude to everyone involved for the commitment and passion you showed, making last Wednesday’s event what we believe was a historic milestone. Thanks to Club Atlético de Madrid, Diario AS, Integrated Dreams, World Football Summit Image description: This collage captures the spirit of an inclusive football event at Atlético de Madrid’s stadium.

History was made in the world of football with the recent UEFA Champions League game at the Riyadh Air Metropolitano Stadium, marking a significant milestone in accessibility and inclusion. From the moment the matchday experience began, fans of all abilities were not just accommodated, but celebrated. Activities included an inspiring exhibition of wheelchair soccer and three young champions with #Downsyndrome entering the field alongside the referee, setting the tone for a truly special event. The match didn't just happen on the pitch; sensory rooms provided a calm space for those in need, #audiodescription #ADC services ensured every moment was felt, and #signlanguage interpretations graced the video boards during the national anthem and team lineups, breaking new ground for inclusion in sports. This wasn’t just about football; it was about community, compassion, and breaking barriers. As the CEO of AccessibAll Olivier Jarosz mentioned, "The most important goal was purely social, and we’re thrilled to have achieved it, the movement has begun! Inclusivity isn’t about statistics, it’s about ensuring everyone’s involved. If you want figures, with three-digit registration numbers already we’ll see you back in Riyadh Air Metropolitano in less than 20 days for the largest disabled event yet, alongside UEFA, FIFA, and clubs united by this cause. These are the values that define Club Atlético de Madrid and we are proud to share them with the world and huge thanks to collaborative efforts with Diario AS, Integrated Dreams and World Football Summit" Video description: The accompanying video showcases the event, highlighting Club Atlético de Madrid's match against LOSC in the most inclusive UEFA Champions League game ever, focusing on several aspects of accessibility, with special attention given to non-visible disabilities. #Inclusion #FootballForAll #AccessibAll #UCL #SocialValues #AccessibilityMatters
