This plan is about the Shire of Serpentine Jarrahdale.

We just call it the Shire.

We have done a lot to improve the Shire over the last few years.

We are proud of what we have done.

And we are excited for what we plan to do next.

In 2021, there were 1,151 people with disability living in the Shire who need help with their day‑to‑day life.

This number has gone up since 2016.

And more people in our community now provide care to others without pay.

An accessibility icon next to an arrow pointing up.

We want to make the Shire more accessible.

A magnifying glass that shows a tick. Next to the magnifying glass is a location icon with a dotted line leading to another location icon.

When the community is accessible, it is easy to:

A person with disability behind a DJ set up.

This means it is easier for people with disability to take part in the community.

We also want to make the Shire more inclusive.

A person taking part in a sporting activity.

When something is inclusive, everyone:

A person supporting someone to move around the community in their mobility aid.

We want the Shire to be a place that supports and welcomes everyone.

This includes people:

3 people of different ages.

Icons of a brain, eye with a strike through it and ear with a strike through it.
