Leisure Card Scheme
Doncaster Council can issue a leisure card free if the holder meets certain criteria (contact DIAL Doncaster for further information/application form). The leisure card gives the holder discount on a wide range of leisure activities. The leisure card can be used in several venues in Doncaster, Barnsley, Rotherham and Sheffield (for a list of participating venues contact DIAL Doncaster on 01302 327 800).
One for One Scheme
If you qualify for a leisure card and are assisted by a carer or a paid personal assistant, you can apply for a one for one sticker to be added to your leisure card which entitles your carer/paid personal assistant FREE admission to qualifying sports, leisure facilities and activities when accompanying the leisure card holder.
