The Power of Ping – St Vincents
Through the people of Ping!, we regularly hear how table tennis has a powerful impact on lives and communities.
This year marks the 10th anniversary of Ping! and to celebrate our decade, we’re releasing a series of short films telling the stories of some of the inspirational projects and people.
Table Tennis is truly inclusive
St Vincent’s Support Centre in Leeds helps people with a range of health conditions.
Table tennis is provided as a weekly session, with activator Ping Pong Pete bringing adapted ping pong equipment to allow everyone to get involved, regardless of their conditions or disabilities.
The activity helps the participants to socialise, grow in confidence and learn different skills; and they really look forward to playing ping pong each week. A great example of how table tennis is truly inclusive.
There is no them and us!
