We are honoured to showcase active and inclusive sport and recreational facilities in customised Access Keys.
Our resources provide improved information for participation. We see no better way than to enhance the experience than to equip visitors with information needed determine the suitability of a venue along with fostering independence and providing added confidence to attend.
Beautifully tailored to support NDIS participant goals, these Access Keys include a comprehensive list of therapeutic benefits of participation which are compiled in consult with AAA’s Occupational Therapist.
It is also an honour to have our AAA Network Supporter, Disability Sport & Recreation, along for this ride and to feature the DSR NDIS Sports Guide in these respective Access Keys.
We feel privileged to support this industry and identify active participation is a critical area in need of better resourcing to help with the unfortunate chronic conditions that can often accompany disability.
Sharing the love of our Access Key initiative is the Australasian Leisure Management magazine with a recent article on how Access Keys support all Australians – regardless of ability – to participate in and contribute to community life with independence, equity and dignity. Click here to read.
Our team is passionate and committed to supporting this industry to get the best outcomes for community and clients. Our team of helpful professional staff will guide you with every step of the Access Key development journey.
We are happy to share with you the steps taken to bring a project of this magnitude together.

Images captured will support Access Key information and will showcase the centre and its wide breadth of accessibility and inclusivity. Images may include parking, pathways, pools and pool access options, change facilities, splash parks, health clubs and much more!
