The Games are about more than competition.

One of the wonderful parts of the Special Olympics experience is Athlete Wellness โ€” giving athletes the opportunity to receive a range of health and wellness assessments while also learning more about looking after themselves as athletes.

Our residents took part in assessments covering areas including vision, hearing, dental health, physiotherapy, medical care and dietetics.

It's an important reminder that supporting athletes means looking at the whole person, not just what happens in the pool. ๐ŸŠโ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŠโ€โ™‚๏ธ

We loved seeing our residents taking part, learning and making the most of everything the Games have to offer.

A big thank you to Brenda for accompanying our ladies, and to Johannes for safely taking our residents to Durban and bringing them home again.

What a wonderful opportunity to get out there, participate, compete and represent the Sunfield community.
