Funding Secured for All-Abilities Playground at Celebrity Tree Park

The Shire of Wyndham East Kimberley has successfully obtained funding from Lotterywest for the development of an All-Abilities Playground at Celebrity Tree Park. This exciting project aims to create an inclusive and accessible play space that caters to people of all ages and abilities.

The Shire will be inviting expressions of interest (EOI) for the design and construction of the proposed facility from suitably qualified contractors and builders.

The project's conceptual design, presented in the above fly-through video by Nature Play Solutions, played a pivotal role in securing the necessary funding. This visualisation not only aided in cost estimation but also demonstrated the potential of the All-Abilities Playground.

"We are delighted to receive funding from Lotterywest for this transformative project," said Shire President David Menzel.

"The All-Abilities Playground is part of the Shire’s scope of work that aligns with the Disability Access and Inclusion Plan. The design concept encompasses the diverse needs of all individuals, making certain that everyone can enjoy the playground equally”

 

The Shire's primary objective is to develop a play space that becomes a must-visit destination for both local residents and travellers. By doing so, the playground will enrich the entire community, offering numerous benefits beyond a traditional recreational area.
