Sunshine Coast locals with a lived experience of disability and their families are invited to share their experiences of their favourite accessible and/or inclusive places.

Starting 29 October, the Accessible Sunshine Coast Photo Competition invites residents to capture these everyday moments with a short description of the location and share the stories behind them. What makes it accessible and/or inclusive? Tell us about your experience.

The winning entry will receive a family pass to Australia Zoo, announced on 3 December, International Day of People with Disability.

Celebrating the places that welcome everyone

Strong Community Portfolio Councillor Taylor Bunnag said the competition was a celebration of places and spaces that support participation and inclusion.
