Beach Wheelchair for Kiama Downs Surf Club
We want everyone to be able to enjoy the beach this summer.
In the last year at our practice, you have all helped put over $14,000 of your gap fees towards projects including this new mobility chair on Jones Beach in Kiama Downs — which is free for all to use.
This beach chair helps anyone with difficulty walking to safely enjoy the beach and splash their feet with friends and family. Elderly and younger people have already started using it.
Thanks so much to Kiama Downs Surf Life Savers for putting together the booking system, for continuing to keep our community safe and for making this town so inclusive and fun for everyone who lives here.
How to book the beach wheelchair
The chair can easily be booked on weekends and public holidays during the summer patrol season when Surf Life Savers are on duty.
