Accessibility Action Plan 2019/22

Wyndham City Council's Accessibility Action Plan 2019/22 for people with disability was endorsed by council at Ordinary Council Meeting on 5 February 2019. A copy of the action plan is now available in the document library.

Access and inclusion of people with disability in Wyndham is important to Council and an integral part of our City Plan. The three year Accessibility Action Plan 2019/22 identifies how Council can improve equitable access to Council's services, information and facilities, as well as increasing participation at community hubs, libraries and events.

Please connect with us to discuss any issues or concerns you have in relation to the access and inclusion of people with disability and carers.
