International Competition for Scarborough Martial Arts Club Additional Needs Competitors

A Scarborough Martial Arts Club is spearheading a drive to deliver sessions for children and adults with additional needs.

Some of the youngsters from Desapline Martial Arts took part in an international competition in Hull last weekend.

Andy Desa from the club says it's the first time an additional needs event has taken place at a recognised international event.

The club is celebrating after picking up a huge medal haul from last weekend's ICO international competition which took place at the University of Hull.

Andy says it was great to see all members of the club able to compete at the event.

We are a small locally owned and operated business which employs professional journalists and reporters. We do not receive any public funding or grants and we are entirely funded by our local commercial operations. We enjoy fabulous support from local businesses who work with us on their advertising and marketing campaigns, but the cost of providing high quality, well researched, fact checked local news coverage is significant.
