Onwards and Upwards
DADSC is raising money for building work to allow wheelchair users, and those with mobility problems, to enjoy the facilities of the 1st Floor Function suites at EEP. We started in March 2016 with a target of £55,000, which was achieved in December 2022. Powered By:
However, as costs have risen since 2016, DADSC now aims to raise a further £20,000 (£75,000 in total) to help achieve the desired solution - see the thermometer below.

CAFE Week of Action 2023
The DAFC v FC Edinburgh match on 18 March was the scene for celebrations of the 2023 Week of Action for CAFE (Centre for Access to Football in Europe).
A bucket collection and merchandise pop-up shop raised more than £800 for the DADSC 1st Floor Access Fund, 10-year old wheelchair user Calvin Early led out the Pars, and a 7-a-side match took place at half-time between the Scottish National Cerebral Palsy Team and a Pars Legends team that included Hamish French, Scott Thomson, John Watson and Andy Tod, shown in entirety in a video produced by ParsTV (click on "Read More" below).
There`s also a short video (click on "Read More" below) of the occasion, containing interviews with Graham Ross, DAFC`s Disability Access Officer, and Greig Taylor, Manager of the Scotland National CP Team.
Play Your Part
Along with several other groups in the Pars family, DADSC attended the "Play Your Part" event at East End Park, celebrating the work of volunteers and seeking to gain new ones. The picture shows Trustees Roger Hyde and David Laming at DADSC`s display table.
DADSC flyers were distributed to those who attended, and two new members were recruited.
DADSC Fund Hits its First Target
The DADSC fund to provide access for disabled fans to the EEP function suites has reached its first target of £55k, originally set in 2016. This remarkable achievement shows the determination, creativity and generosity of Pars supporters as well as of others in the community. Thank you to everyone who has contributed.
However, with the passage of time and current inflation even more money will be needed, so DADSC will continue to raise funds for the project, with a target of an additional £20,000.
Meantime we are working with DAFC Ltd and with Pars United EEP Ltd (the stadium owners) to find a solution that meets everyone`s needs. Please continue to support DADSC.
