Be a part of Adelaide City Council’s Disability Access Committee

Would you like to advocate for residents with a disability living, working or visiting in the Adelaide City Council area (CBD and North Adelaide)?

Adelaide City Council currently has a vacancy for a community member to join its Access Committee.

If you have a disability yourself or you have special knowledge or interest in disability issues and are able to commit to attending six meetings in the CBD per year, Council would love to hear from you.

They are especially keen to hear from people who have special interest in those issues facing younger people with disability.

To apply for the Access Committee vacancy, please contact Council’s Community Planner, Pauline Zanet, on 8203 7779 or by email p.zanet@adelaidecitycouncil.com.

A ‘Life. Be in it’ community event funded by the Adelaide City Council.

The Adelaide City Council’s Picture Adelaide Program is an opportunity to share your views about the City where you live, shop, work and play.

You can have your say through the Picture Adelaide website, reply paid postcards or the new iPhone app.

The app can be used to share your ideas by taking photos of places and things around Adelaide, sharing them with friends and commenting on them.

The Adelaide City Council is seeking City residents with disability to become members of their Access Planning Group which monitors the Access Action Plan 2010-2012 as well as advising on access priorities and issues.
