Promoting Inclusion and Opportunity Through Sport

The International Powerlifting Federation (IPF) supports initiatives like the IFMA’s mission to empower athletes with disabilities. Since 1989, the IPF has fostered inclusivity through partnerships with organisations like the IPC and Special Olympics, ensuring equitable opportunities for adaptive athletes in competition and beyond.

Inclusivity for All

British Powerlifting is committed to fostering an inclusive environment that welcomes and supports neurodiverse individuals and members of the transgender community. By promoting fairness, respect, and representation, we aim to ensure that all lifters, regardless of their background or identity, feel empowered to participate, compete, and thrive in the sport.
