Park In The Hart Goes Accessible
PRINCE GEORGE — Heather Park Elementary has seen an upgrade with the installation of a fully accessible playground.
The park is wheelchair accessible and has several features for people of all mobility levels including:
- A ramp so wheelchair users can have access to an elevated playing experience
- Swings with harnesses for those with limited upper-body mobility
- “Friendship swing” so two people can swing together
- Roller slide for safe, sensory play
Through seven years of fundraising and sponsorships from companies around the city, the Heather Park Parent Advisory Council was able to raise the necessary $125,000 to bring this park to life.
