The City of Hamilton is pleased to introduce the newly installed “We-Go” wheelchair accessible swing at Heritage Green Sports Park (355 First Road West, Hamilton). The addition of the wheelchair accessible swing supports the City of Hamilton’s Vision to be the best place to raise a child and age successfully and aligns with the Accessibility for Ontarians with Disabilities Act, 2005 (Design of Public Spaces Standards).
This wheelchair accessible swing let’s kids of all abilities play together on a fully inclusive swing. With barrier free and transfer free access for users, it is a welcome addition to the many play opportunities at Heritage Green Sports Park.
The “We-Go-Swing” is a step forward in inclusive play experiences. Designed to be integrated into the playground setting, this swing lets kids of all abilities play together and experience the thrill of swinging. With no need to transfer, the We-Go-Swing opens a whole new world of playground fun.
The installation of this new play feature could not have been made possible without the generous contribution from the Heritage Green Community Trust, in which the Heritage Green Community Trust Grant funded a portion of the wheelchair accessible swing.
