The City of Kimberley has developed an Age-Friendly Accessibility Plan to improve life for people of all abilities, especially those with disabilities and those aged 55 and older. The goal is to make Kimberley a safe, healthy, and inclusive community.
What Is an Accessible and Age-Friendly City? These cities focus on social and physical environments, including:
- Land use and street connectivity
- Access to green spaces
- Safe and inclusive neighbourhood design
- Features that maintain social connections
These improvements foster a sense of belonging and community identity.
The plan focuses on eight important domains, from outdoor spaces and transportation to housing, health services, and communication. It also introduces five inspiring ideas to help build a more connected and inclusive Kimberley.
We invite you to explore the plan below and learn how we’re working together to make Kimberley a place where everyone can thrive.
