A disabilities charity is urging volunteers to help raise cash for its cause while getting involved with the Olympics and Paralympics.

Diverse Abilities Plus, which provides support and education for children and adults with disabilities across Dorset, is taking part in the ‘Gold Challenge’ which involves participants completing a number of Olympic and Paralympic sports by December 31, 2012.

Entry can be as part of a team or as an individual where volunteers would be sponsored for taking part in five, 10, 20 or 30 sports.
