Dragons On The Move

Dragons On the Move: Improving Accessibility across Norfolk

Dragons On the Move is an accessible programme designed to help everyone enjoy the benefits of being active in Norfolk. We want to help people of all ages and abilities to have fun, and try new skills and activities!

Dragons On The Move was formed in partnership with the Disability Real Action Group of Norfolk (DRAGONs). It was originally called ‘On the Move’ but has since been rebranded to reflect the crucial work the Dragons have put into making it a success.

The Dragons are a group of young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities who visit clubs and leisure centres across the county. They assess these to ensure they are accessible and easy to use for people with disabilities or additional mobility requirements.

The Disability Real Action Group of Norfolk (DRAGONs) are a group of young people with special educational needs and/or disabilities.

We have partnered up with these exceptional young people to review facilities and greenspaces across Norfolk. This project is known as ‘Dragons On The Move’.


Get involved How does it work?
Dragons On the Move reviews public places such as leisure centres, community centres and greenspaces for accessibility.

This is a great way for people with disabilities to hear honest reviews of venues, but also a fantastic way for local venues and organisations to make a commitment to improving their accessibility. View the map See who we've worked with
We've worked with over 23 providers in Norfolk to advise on and improve their accessibility offering.

Once a provider has committed to making changes, they become a 'DRAGONs approved' provider.

By working with us, providers across Norfolk are committing to providing a more accessible venue.

Whether their commitment involved installing new ramps, considering the signage use or additional training for staff, there have been many venues across Norfolk who have excelled.

Following the success of On The Move, we decided to expand into reviewing trails, parks and green spaces for accessibility.

The DRAGONs have been visiting these trails and advising on what works and what could be improved.

These reviews should help anyone looking to get active outdoors.
