new water sports facility sites at Acres Lake, Co. Leitrim SURVEY.
Fáilte Ireland is committed to ensuring their tourist destinations, products and services are accessible to all people, regardless of age, size, ability, or disability. They are funding the development of public facilities at 19 coastal and inland waterside locations and at 5 mountain biking centres, with the aim of supporting and encouraging participation in water sports and mountain biking. A key priority of these projects is to ensure these facilities are following best practice in Universal Design with the aim of creating fully accessible and inclusive visitor experiences.
O’Herlihy Access Consultancy (OHAC) have been engaged to facilitate a consultation process to understand the experiences, challenges, and needs of people with disabilities and older people. As part of this consultation, OHAC are conducting a national survey in addition to the facilitation of online and in person consultation sessions. There is both a standard survey and an ‘Easy-to-Read survey’.
One of the new water sports facility sites is Acres Lake, Co. Leitrim. Leitrim locals attended an online consultation session in July, and OHAC were able to hear the voices of locals and listen to their feedback on the pending new building. OHAC are now encouraging people in the Leitrim area to fill in their survey which they have extended the deadline to next week Sunday 11th of August 11:45pm.
