A new leisure discount card for children and young people with disabilities has been revealed.
The Compass Card West Sussex offers discounts on 50 leisure activities across the county which could save families hundreds of pounds every year.
More than 600 people took part in free activities including archery, zipwires and an adventure trail during its launch event yesterday (April 8).
Cllr Peter Evans, West Sussex County Council Cabinet Member for Children - Start of Life, said: "We want this new card to break down the barriers which stop people from accessing services which other children and young people take for granted.
"Families will be able to find out easily which activities are adapted for children with disabilities and we hope it will also encourage more leisure services to extend their offerings.
A council spokesman said the card was available to more than 5,000 under 25-year-olds who are living or going to school in West Sussex, and have a disability or special educational need that has a 'big effect' on their daily life.
She said: "Families signing up for the Compass Card West Sussex will be added to the county's disability register and their personal information will be held securely under strict Data Protection legislation. Local charity Amaze, who has been commissioned to manage the discount card and the disability register, will also be able to collate anonymous data to help West Sussex County Council plan for the future more effectively.
A total of 50 offers are listed in the Compass Card West Sussex guide.
The spokesman said its free GPS-linked app would be updated weekly as the number of offers grows. It was available in the Apple App Store or in Google Play by searching 'compass card' and had the capacity to filter according to age, location and activity type.
