People with Disability

We are committed to co-creating an equitable, accessible and inclusive community, making Bellingen Shire a better place to live or visit for people of all abilities.

We work with people with disability to improve our community. This includes things like:

  • Improving access to community buildings
  • Making it easier for people to use our parks, beaches and playgrounds
  • Creating accessible documents and making information easier to understand

 

Disability Inclusion Action Planning

Our Disability Inclusion Action Plan explains how we work to support people with disability have greater access to information, services and facilities.
