You're Welcome - WA Access Initiative

The You’re Welcome WA Access Initiative - City of Perth provides people with disabilities with clear access information about a wide range of facilities in the Perth central city area including hotels, restaurants, car parks, cinemas, theatres, gyms and shopping areas.

This exciting project has been developed through a partnership of the Disability Services Commission and the City of Perth. It will help meet the needs of the 20% of people in WA with a disability as well as providing the opportunity for business to develop new markets.

Businesses and community organisations are encouraged to become involved in the project. Access Information for Businesses and Community Organisations contains practical information on improving access to places such as shops, restaurants, banks, churches and accommodation. If you would like your business to be considered for inclusion on this web site, please email the City of Perth at info_city@cityofperth.wa.gov.au

About the Project

</STRONG>People with disabilities currently report that they face many barriers accessing community facilities. However businesses can expand their markets by providing services that are accessible for the 20% of people in Western Australia who have a disability.

The You’re Welcome WA Access Initiative provides people with disabilities with clear access information about a wide range of facilities in the central city area and this will be further expanded as the project develops. To date approximately 100 facilities in five geographic clusters of the central city have been audited.

The project also aims to provide practical information to assist businesses make their services accessible to customers of all ages and abilities. A number of information sheets and access checklists have been developed as part of the project. Go to the front page to access this information.

A partnership of the Disability Services Commission and the City of Perth has developed this exciting project. The Project Steering Team is comprised of representatives of the Disability Services Commission, the City of Perth, Tourism WA, The Western Australian Local Government Association, ACROD, the Ministerial Advisory Council on Disability Services and People with Disabilities (Inc).
The You’re Welcome WA Access Initiative has three stages:

Stage 1- October - November 2004

Development of two information packs:

1. Access Information Pack.
The pack contains access information about services and facilities within the City of Perth. The access information is arranged in clusters relating to location and type of facility. Three initial clusters based on location, Barrack Square, Forrest Place and The West End, and one cluster based on toilet facilities, were developed.
2. Access Information Pack for Business and Community Organisations.
This pack contains clear, practical information to assist businesses, including cafés, banks and shops, to make their services accessible to customers of all ages and abilities. This information is available here : Information for Business and Community Organisations

Stage 2: December 2004 - August 2005

In consultation with key stakeholders, the Project Team reviewed the access information and distribution methods used in the project. Following this, the project was trialled again to develop more access information about other clusters within the City of Perth. During this stage a You’re Welcome WA Access Initiative Resource Pack was developed for use throughout Western Australia.

Stage 3: August 2005 - August 2006

Stage Three involves the formal release of the You’re Welcome WA Access Initiative Resource Pack throughout Western Australia. It is anticipated that Local Governments and other interested community groups will be involved with such initiatives.

The City of Perth offers the greatest range of accommodation in the state, from backpacker hostels to luxury five-star suites.
Backpackers Northbridge draws backpackers from all corners of the world. Close to cheap, healthy eateries and plenty of pubs, backpacker and hostel accommodation can be found on many Northbridge streets, as well as in other city precincts including the CBD.
Hotels Small boutique-style hotels, economically priced traveller’s chains and five-star luxury hotels can all be found in the City of Perth. Many hotels offer swimming pool and gym facilities and the restaurants within the five-star hotels offer fabulous dining experiences.
Serviced Apartments Serviced apartments are an option growing in popularity, particularly for families and those staying in Perth for a longer period

The City of Perth is the capital city of Western Australia, the nation’s largest state. Most of Western Australia’s 1.8 million people live in the greater metropolitan area of Perth, of which the City of Perth forms the nucleus.
Captain James Stirling founded the City of Perth as part of the Swan River Colony in 1829. Stirling thought the natural environment around Perth was "as beautiful as anything of this kind I had ever witnessed” and advocated that a colony be established there. The British Government agreed to found the colony as the first free settlement in Australia, and the first settlers arrived in Western Australia in June 1829. On August 12 of that year, the felling of a tree marked the official foundation of the City of Perth.
Having celebrated the 175th anniversary of its foundation, the City of Perth continues its evolution into one of Australia’s most distinctive and welcoming cities.
The City of Perth is divided into five distinct precincts, each with its own distinctive character and in easy reach of the city centre.
Central Business District The CBD is the commercial core of Perth, with St Georges’ Terrace as its heart. “The Terrace” is the home of big business, grand hotels, smart cafes and some of Perth’s most historic buildings, neighbouring modern skyscrapers.
The main shopping areas of Hay and Murray Street Malls are in the CBD, as are many arcades and shopping centres, including Forrest Chase and Carillon City. Many of Perth’s major cultural institutions, such as His Majesty’s Theatre and the Perth Concert Hall, are also found in this precinct.
Riverside The Riverside precinct is primarily dedicated to recreation, with dual-use paths surrounding the river encouraging enjoyment of Perth’s stunning environment. The new wetlands at Point Fraser and the kangaroo colony on Heirisson Island are two noteworthy areas within this precinct, which becomes a centre of focus for the city's Australia Day celebrations on January 26 each year.
West Perth West Perth extends west from King Street to Thomas Street. King Street and its immediate surrounds are known locally as “the West End”, forming the transition between the CBD and West Perth. King Street is one of Perth’s most stylish locations, where designer shops meet sidewalk cafes for a little taste of Europe. Hay Street West is a business-oriented precinct where mining companies and medical specialists abound.
It’s not all work in West Perth, though. Hay Street features charming cafés and bakeries, and in the streets running between Murray Street and Kings Park Road you can find some of Perth’s best restaurants, many in character houses that retain their original beauty. All this is within close reach of Kings Park, a favoured site for the lunchtime joggers and nature lovers.
East Perth East Perth is both one of Perth’s oldest and newest precincts. The Perth Mint, the Catholic Cathedral of St Mary’s and Australia’s first purpose-built fire station are among the historic buildings in the area.
Formerly made up of warehouses and light industry, East Perth today is a landscaped region of architecturally magnificent homes and well-kept public gardens overlooking the Swan River. An abundance of public art combined with riverside restaurants has made East Perth an attractive location for work and play.
Northbridge Although Northbridge was only named in 1977, it has a colourful history marked by waves of immigrants who have made it the multicultural hub of Western Australia.
Northbridge is known as the centre of Perth’s nightlife and dining and it also hosts a thriving backpacking industry. This is the place to enjoy a hearty meal of any number of international cuisines, swap stories with backpackers at the pub, hit the dance floor, or shop for hard-to-find ingredients.
Northbridge is also the home of Western Australia’s major cultural institutions: the Art Gallery of Western Australia, the WA Museum and the State Reference Library. Smaller innovative arts venues, including the Blue Room Theatre, the Perth Institute of Contemporary Art and The Bakery Gallery are also in Northbridge. Annual festivals including Chinese New Year celebrations and the Pride Parade are held here.
