About ParalympicsGB
We are ParalympicsGB, the National Paralympic Committee for Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It is our responsibility to select, prepare, enter, fund, and manage the ParalympicsGB team at the Paralympic Games.

London 2012 kindled a passion for disability sport in Great Britain and demonstrated the power of the Paralympics to inspire a shift in perceptions of disability and ability. Now, with Paris 2024 and Milano-Cortina 2026 fresh in our minds, we have our sights firmly set on the LA 2028 Summer Paralympics. Our ambition is to use the positive power of sport to inspire a change in attitudes to disability and bring about equality for disabled people in sport, education, and society, and with the launch of Championing Change, our 10-year strategy from 2022-2032 it could not be a more exciting time to join the team!

As a ParalympicsGB team member you are expected to exhibit the highest levels of professionalism, including demonstrating the BPA’s core values, at all times:

Excellence – Everything we do reflects our ambition to be world leading. We care deeply about what we do and bring a flexible approach to our interactions with others. Like the athletes we support, we will always challenge ourselves and others to do better.

Respect – Our relationships with each other, our partners and the wider community are based on respect, trust and a deep-seated belief in diversity, inclusion and the value of our differences.

Integrity – We demand the highest standards from ourselves and others, seeking always to do the right thing and to engage with openness and transparency in all that we do.
