The iPEPAS Inclusive Aquatics programme is free of charge however we do welcome donations to helps us cover costs associated with implementing the programme in low and middle income countries. These countries carry the burden of over 90% of global drowning incidents, predominantly due to a lack of basic swimming skills. Also, people with disabilities are more likely to experience higher levels of social exclusion and discrimination.
All donations will go directly to travel/accommodation and other costs associated with onsite training of inclusive aquatics, and basic swimming skills where needed, to build capacity to ensure that everywhere the programme is implemented, everyone in the community is safe in the water and has access to the wide range of health, social and development benefits.
