KEEN London

KEEN London FREE 1:1 supported games, sports & activities for children with additional needs & disabilities.

KEEN London believes that no child should be excluded from sports, games and activities because of their additional needs. We run safe, engaging and accessible activities for children with additional needs and disabilities. Our tailored one-to-one support helps children (we call them athletes) to be more active, more engaged, learn new skills, thrive and have fun. We have been providing free weekly sessions for 20 years and in that time we have grown from one session with a handful of volunteers to multiple sessions and locations and hundreds of passionate volunteers. We have seen children achieve so much since beginning their journey with KEEN London. Building confidence, self-esteem, making friends for life and creating memories that will last a lifetime. All our services are free but we rely on the generosity of our supporters and volunteers. To find out more about supporting our work or volunteering please visit our website or get in touch via this page.

Last week these amazing individuals completed a collective 75km of mud, barbed wire, electricity, water, heights and did we say mud! Thank you 2026 team for showing the children at KEEN that grownups can be brave too (and more importantly you are never too old for a muddy puddle.
Sponsorship is still live and more keen events are also in our bio.

If you have seen today’s story you’ll have met Gloria from this years Remember A Charity campaign wanting to be remembered for more than just beating her grandkids.

It is often the silly, quirky moments we remember most about people we care about, here are a few from your KEEN London staff and volunteers.

Remember a Charity week is a great time to think about what you want to be remembered for most. More and more people are choosing to remember the causes they care about in their Wills, find out more about the difference a small gift can make here https://www.keenlondon.org/making-a-gift-in-your-will/

Last year, KEEN London received a special gift: our very first legacy.

That single gift allowed us to expand Rising Stars, our preschool service providing early intervention, practical guidance, and a community for preschool children with additional needs and their families.

Over the past year, we’ve seen the life-changing impact of early support, swipe to read what Abdul and Zuri’s families had to say! ➡️

As part of Remember a Charity Week, we’re sharing how leaving a gift in your Will, of any size helps keep vital services running, expanding and making a difference.

Family and friends always come first, but if KEEN London is close to your heart, a gift in your Will can ensure our work continues for years to come.

We are deeply saddened by the death of Professor Jason Arday.

Jason was a black autistic man who became a professor at Cambridge and a prominent voice on disability, neurodiversity, race and equality.

His achievements were remarkable, particularly in the context of the barriers he faced throughout his life.
His life is also a powerful reminder of why inclusion and
representation matters.

“Different contexts, common aspirations” the theme for

We see that every Saturday. Three different KEEN Clubs, three very different groups of athletes but the same aspirations. To have fun, build confidence, be active but most importantly to come together and belong.

Our biggest ever all-site trip: nearly 40 athletes, London Zoo

Big cats and giraffes were the favourites going in, but the real magic happened in the butterfly house and aviary, no barriers, just pure close-up wonder. We watched children who'd stayed quiet around the "big hitters" completely light up.

A parent told us afterwards: “I have never felt so trusting of a group of people before as I do with the team from KEEN London.” 💙

Huge thanks to our incredible volunteers, and to our funders and supporters who make days like this possible Cash for Kids.
