Accessible Communities Grants
Background
In 2003 the City of Nedlands initiated an Accessible Communities Grants
program to encourage local community initiatives that enhance the lives and wellbeing
of local people with disabilities and their families and assist in developing
an accessible community.
Aim
An accessible and inclusive community is one in which broad participation in
all aspects of community life is welcomed and maximised.
The Accessible Communities Grants program aims to support, encourage and
recognise the local “champions” who provide such opportunities for increasing
community accessibility and inclusiveness, by undertaking activities that enhance
the lives of local people with disabilities, their families, carers and friends.
In particular, projects that help break down social isolation; strengthen local
support networks; and increase and encourage local community interaction and
inclusiveness will be viewed favourably.
