Have Your Say - Access, Equity and Inclusion Strategy (Disability Action Plan)
Yarra Ranges Council’s current Equity Access and Inclusion Strategy (Disability Action Plan) is coming to an end, and they are reviewing actions in the plan and developing a new Strategy, with an updated name, for the future.
Yarra Ranges Council would like your feedback on how accessible you find their infrastructure, facilities, communications and services, and give any suggestions for improvement to make Yarra Ranges more accessible, equitable and inclusive for residents.
You can have your say by filling out the survey or uploading a photo showing what is currently working well, and what needs improvement.
The survey and photo uploader can be found on their website here: https://shaping.yarraranges.vic.gov.au/access-equity-and-inclusion-strategy
You can also call Yarra Ranges Council on 1300 368 333, or pick up a hard copy of the survey at Lilydale Community Link (Council Offices), 15 Anderson Street, Lilydale.
Feedback is open until March 10.
