Access to the beach at Emu Park has been improved in a collaborative project between Livingstone Shire Council, the Iwasaki Foundation and the Emu Park Surf Lifesaving Club.

The Livingstone Shire Council is currently auditing the accessibility of all it’s beaches.

In speaking to the ABC, lobby group Accessible Beaches and Sasha Job from CQUniversity pointed to evidence of the inaccessibility of most Queensland beaches and called for more councils to include people with disabilities in decision making in projects that propose to improve accessibility.
