Peninsula excluded from disability inclusion talks

Expressions of Interest to be part of a Disability Inclusion Reference Group will close on August 25.

Central Coast Council also has several community forums planned for September to capture feedback from people with disabilities on "what will make the community and council more accessible and inclusive".

The Peninsula has not been chosen as a location for any of the forum.

The closest location for Peninsula residents wishing to attend a forum is the Erina Room at Erina Fair on September 6 (6pm to 8pm) or September 7 (10am to 12pm).

According to the Central Coast Council, the reference group will be made up of: six community members living with a disability; or carers, or family members of people with disabilities and four representatives from relevant community or disability organisations.

Central Coast Council is seeking expressions of interest from a blend of community members and organisations who fit into those categories.
