Playspaces -
- Provide opportunities for organised and casual recreation. Base the provision of these opportunities on residential, demographic and workplace needs, ensuring equity and accessibility.
- A universal approach to path access from the car park and park entry to the play space, with no barriers to movement for all.
- Include a range of accessible options including cubbies, imaginative role play areas, mazes and activity panels for social inclusion.
- Design activities that allow a person in a wheelchair to get close to the activity, providing clearance for their knees.
- Provide turning spaces large enough for wheelchair/walking aids, particularly within cubbies or on decks, path intersections, picnic and seating areas.
- Promote mental and emotional health by creating spaces that encourage relaxation, reflection and social interaction.
