Making Moorabool Shire accessible

People living with disability face a vast range of challenges in their daily lives such as restricted access to social and cultural events. Changing places facilities, such as Marveloos, enable people with disabilities, their carers and families to visit places or attend events they might not otherwise attend because of inadequate toilet facilities.

It means that events and festivals in Moorabool and neighbouring areas can be truly inclusive events. People with disabilities will not be limited in the places they can go to and the time they spend at an event. It will broaden their world and maximise their participation and inclusion in sporting, cultural and recreational events.
