Petition Action

Ensure all play parks are disabled user friendly.

Petition Details

To provide bigger, disabled friendly swings and wheelchair friendly roundabouts.

Additional Information

I have taken less abled children to my local park and quite a few in my surrounding area and the lack of equipment for these individuals is unfair. As the ones who are older don’t fit in the toddler swings and are too unsteady to be on an older child’s swing. Also if an individual is in a wheelchair they can not access the roundabouts.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Provision of local play parks is a matter for individual local authorities, not the Government or House of Commons.

You could raise this issue with a local councillor, who represents you. You can use this page to find out who your local councillors are, and how to contact them: www.gov.uk/find-your-local-councillors

We could accept a petition calling on the Government to provide additional funding to local authorities to help them improve provision at play parks for people with disabilities.
