About Us

We are Get Set 4 Tennis CIC, a passionate, inclusive tennis organisation with a mission to make sport accessible for everyone—regardless of ability, background, or income. Our team is made up of experienced coaches, educators, and inclusion specialists who believe that tennis can change lives.

We don’t just run tennis lessons—we create safe, empowering spaces for people with disabilities, mental health challenges, and those from low-income families to connect, grow in confidence, and discover their potential.

We’re also the only tennis club in the UK offering a dedicated coach education programme for post-16 young people with additional needs (SEND)—giving them the skills, training, and support to enter paid employment in sport.

Community Impact

Get Set 4 Tennis CIC is more than a sports organisation—we’re a vital part of our community’s support network. Our inclusive programmes create a safe, welcoming environment for people of all ages and abilities, especially those who are often left out.

We support:

• Children from low-income families who otherwise wouldn’t have access to structured, confidence-building activities

• Disabled individuals and those with additional needs, helping them grow in confidence, independence, and social connection

• Young people struggling with mental health, by offering structure, purpose, and a sense of belonging

• SEND post-16s, through a unique coach education programme that builds skills and opens doors to employment

• Families in crisis, by providing a warm space—somewhere to come not just for sport, but for safety, community, and support

Whether it’s a child finding their voice, a young adult gaining their first job, or a parent finding respite and connection, the impact is clear: we bring people together, break down barriers, and change lives through tennis and care.

Your support keeps this essential work going.

Our Vision

Our vision is a future where everyone—regardless of their barriers—can access high-quality, inclusive coaching and opportunities to thrive. We want to build a generation of confident, skilled young leaders with disabilities, while continuing to provide life-changing opportunities through sport for families across our community.

Last Year’s 24-Hour Tennis Marathon

Our 24-hour tennis marathon crowdfunding page was an incredible success, bringing together players, families, volunteers, and supporters for a full day and night of non-stop tennis and community spirit. Thanks to the amazing support from our local community, we raised over £8,000—funds that directly helped us deliver inclusive coaching sessions, support SEND participants, and maintain our warm space. The energy, generosity, and togetherness shown during the event was a powerful reminder of what we can achieve when we rally together.

This years campaign..........

The money raised will go directly towards our core costs, helping us:

• Fund staffing and specialist coaches who run our inclusive programmes

• Cover essential venue and utility costs, ensuring we have a safe space for all

• Purchase adaptive equipment so no one is left out

• Maintain and expand our SEND coach education programme, including training materials, support staff, and placements

• Ensure our sessions are free or low-cost, especially for low-income families

Every pound brings us closer to a community where tennis belongs to everyone.
