Parks and access
The Disability Inclusion Action Plan (2017-2021)(PDF, 2MB) (DIAP) guides us on how we can be responsive to the needs of people with a disability living and visiting the Cessnock Local Government Area.
The DIAP comprises four focus areas:
- Develop positive community attitudes and behaviours
- Create liveable communities
- Support access to meaningful employment
- Improve access to services through better systems and processes.
We strive to ensure open space and community facilities meet the Australian Standards for Mobility and Access (AS 1428). A number of our spaces offer shaded playgrounds, BBQ’s and picnic furniture as well as accessible public toilets:
