Wheelchair access and wheelchair accessible equipment

From "Gauntlet Park, Purbrook"

Go to the project

We live very close to Gauntlett Park and my 9 year old is a full time wheelchair user. She would love to be able to play in her local park as she currently cannot. To make this happen, there would need to be smooth paths to access the park and smooth flooring throughout the park, she would also love some wheelchair accessible play equipment so she can play in the park IN her chair. Some ideas…

Wheelchair swing

Wheelchair seesaw

Wheelchair Roundabout

Sunken trampoline

Sensory / interactive boards

Extended picnic bench for wheelchair users

My son is almost 13 and would love a basketball court! I’m sure he would love the gym equipment others have suggested too.
