he event will also deliver amateurs the opportunity to try out new events for the first time.
The Deputy Mayor of host city Doncaster will present medals to winning athletes.
Kathy Collins has been running the event since 1997.
We’ve seen so many fantastic, talented sports people pass through the championships over the years,” she said.
“It’s been wonderful to see so many flourish and succeed to represent England and Great Britain.”
“As the mother of two athletes with a learning disability myself, I understand how important these events are to give talented learning disability athletes the praise and recognition they truly deserve.”
Athletes with a learning disability are underrepresented at other sporting events, even at the Paralympic Games and in its accompanying media coverage.
While the Championships is aimed at athletes who have met qualifying standards in order to compete, there is also a ‘Give it a Go’ event designed for anyone over the age of 13 who just wants to try a new sport in a relaxed and friendly environment.
People at the Give it a Go day will be able to try out a range of track and field events such as 100m, 200m, turbo javelin, shotput and long jump and compete for medals.
