Why these skills are required

We use sport and exercise to strengthen communities and provide opportunities for people who are excluded or disadvantaged through low income, rural or social isolation, age, disability, race, sexuality or gender to tackle the exclusion and isolation experienced by some of the poorest and most disadvantaged communities. We want to expel racism whilst also improving opportunities for our local teenagers, bringing together people of different ethnic and/or faith backgrounds.

We are learning all of the time and are committed to developing and maintaining an organisation in which all abilities, backgrounds and needs are valued. The Health & Wellbeing of everyone at Pegasus is equally important. “Every Child Does Matter” at Pegasus. We will regularly evaluate and monitor our progress towards diversity.
