The City of Fremantle is creating a new Disability Access and Inclusion Plan (DAIP).

The DAIP is the City's plan for improving access and inclusion over the next five years.

Your ideas and experiences help make Fremantle more accessible and welcoming for everyone.

We encourage people with lived experience of disability, as well as families, carers, support people and anyone with suggestions, to let us know what you think.

Together, we can help build a city where everyone can participate, feel welcome and belong.

There are lots of ways to get involved.
