Accessible Aquatics Day

To celebrate International Day of People with Disability, Northern Beaches Council invites our community members to an Accessible Aquatics Day where you can come and try the accessible facilities at Manly Aquatic Centre.

International Day of People with Disability is a great opportunity to celebrate inclusivity and promote accessibility in our Northern Beaches Community, acknowledging we are stronger as a community when everyone can participate.

• Staff on hand to show you the accessible features and assist with using them if needed.
• Connect with other community members as you make a splash!
• A complimentary voucher for the onsite cafe (limited to each registered participant and one support person or carer)
