Football has been an integral part of my life for the past 15 years, providing me and my family with opportunities and experiences we would never have had without the sport.
Because of those experiences, I can sit here as an England International and European Champion, something that very few people can say.
However, the lack of recognition for the sport and the senior team’s achievements is something that continuously makes those at the top of the game question if all their hard work and sacrifices are worth it.
Paralympic inclusion would put our sport on the world stage, allowing us to compete at the highest level, whilst introducing a whole different audience to a sport that could change their lives like it has mine.
In this podcast you will hear the opinions of two high-profile players on the benefits of Paralympic inclusion, and how new treatments for disabilities may affect Paralympic chances.
