THE PROJECT
We want to ensure that no other child in West Kelowna, or surrounding areas, is excluded from play as a result of a physical, cognitive, emotional or social disability. Further, we want to create a play space where caregivers with these disabilities feel comfortable visiting with their children. Designed to be inclusive ‘from the ground up’, the playground’s universal, sensory rich design, will deliver the following recreational experiences:
- Spinning, Swinging, Sliding
- Multi-Sensory Play
- Tactile Engagement
- Music Experience
- Social/Imaginative (Role Playing)
- Safety, Comfort & Access

A COMMUNITY EFFORT
We are so excited about this project. Not just for Julia, the inspiration behind this space, but for all the children and their caregivers in our community of West Kelowna and surrounding areas who need a fun, safe and accessible space to play. We have partnered with PURKIDS Charitable Foundation, Mamas for Mamas, PacificSport Okanagan, Kelowna Community Resources, Gentle Hands Pediatric Physiotherapy and PlaySpace Adventures to help bring this dream to fruition.
