The City has developed its Access and Inclusion Plan 2023-27 to provide seniors with universal access and to better support community members and community groups who, for whatever reason, may be isolated, marginalised, excluded or vulnerable.
We work to enhance the quality of life for everyone in our community. To achieve this, we coordinate programs that improve social inclusion, and work with community groups and individuals to support local initiatives.
The Cities Access and Inclusion Plan 2023-27 is guided by and supports the State’s Disability Strategy ‘A Western Australia for Everyone: State Disability Strategy 2020-2030’. The strategy sets the foundation for building a more inclusive Western Australia, empowering people with disability to participate meaningfully in all parts of society and to have the resources to do so.
