Only 1.25% of Aussie beaches are accessible and with your support we can change that.
💙 Donate today and your support will open the beach to everyone.
All donations are tax deductible.
Let’s make every beach an accessible beach!
ABA's Bern Walker recently sat down with Arianna from Able Foods to talk about our mission and the state of accessible beaches in Australia.

"Just think about the importance of young kids coming down to the beach with their parents, and it just being the norm to see people with disabilities being included."

Having accessible beach wheelchair storage:
• Enables independence: by allowing people to access the beach whenever THEY want to rather than only at designated times and days
• Fosters true inclusion
• Shows people with disabilities they are VALUED
