New name and now open: All Abilities Play Space becomes a reality

Phase one of the All Abilities Play Space on the Nedlands foreshore in WA – including the main playground area ­– has officially opened with a new name.

Nedlands Mayor Max Hipkins, Rotary and the major sponsor formally opened the facility on Thursday, 7 June, at Beaton Park near the Swan River, unveiling it as the Jo Wheatley All Abilities Play Space.

Vern and Jo Wheatley are major sponsors of the cutting-edge play facility for all ages and abilities, motivated by the many hours of Vern’s happy childhood spent on the Nedlands foreshore.

Initiated by Rotary seven years ago, the Jo Wheatley All Abilities Play Space is the result of a collaboration between the City of Nedlands and the Rotary Clubs of Nedlands, Subiaco and West Perth with other partners including Inclusion WA, COLAB, Wood & Grieve Engineers, Lotterywest and Department of Communities – Disability Services.

Please visit the City's website to read the media release and view photos from the opening.
