Join the discussion on Wattle Range Council disability plan

Members of the Wattle Range Council community are invited to continue discussions on the future direction of Council’s Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP) by attending a second community forum on the topic this Wednesday.

Wattle range Counci director development services Emma Clay said building upon the first successful forum held in February, council would like to invite new and past attendees to attend this workshop.

“The initial forum provided a range of actions, ideas and commentary across 12 key areas,” Ms Clay said. “This upcoming meeting will be turning this feedback into tangible actions that are aligned with Australia’s Disability Strategy and Inclusive SA Disability Inclusion Plan.

“These actions can then be brought before Council for consideration in its budget and business planning process each year.”

Wattle Range Mayor Des Noll encouraged members of the community living with disability, their carers, family, and friends to attend the forum.

“It is vital that we have continued input from people in our community with lived experience when we are developing these types of plans,” Mayor Noll said.

Those interested in attending the forum can register online at www.eventbrite.com.
