Inclusivity and Accessibility

At Gelli Park Community Bowls Club, we are dedicated to promoting inclusivity and accessibility for all members of our community. We believe that everyone should have the opportunity to participate in bowls, regardless of their physical abilities or limitations. To achieve this, we will implement adaptive programs and provide necessary resources to ensure that our facilities and activities are accessible to individuals with disabilities. By fostering an inclusive environment, we aim to empower all participants, encouraging them to engage fully in the sport while also creating a sense of belonging and community support.

Whether visiting or ready to join, we’re excited to welcome you to our community.
