Disability Action Week 2025

Communicate. Connect. Create | 23 Nov-30 Nov

Each year Disability Action Week acknowledges the important and vital roles that people with a disability play in our community. It’s a time to share and communicate all the different achievements and outlets that support diverse connection and access needs. Disability Action Week is on 23 November - 30 November 2025.

The Sunshine Coast is one of the most valued areas in the country and as we grow as a community, we want to ensure it is accessible for all. We recognise that people have different abilities, and for some, everyday services that many of us take for granted can present significant challenges. To reduce this isolation, the Sunshine Coast Council has a Community Strategy Action Plan and an All Abilities Action Plan designed to foster an inclusive, connected and empowered Sunshine Coast.

At Sunshine Coast Libraries we offer a large range of resources that can be accessed by everyone. All locations have wheelchair ramps or lifts and the Technology Collection includes vision impaired keyboards. There are several collections that assist with all abilities such as the eLibrary, Audio Books, Large Type, Home Library Service, Literacy Services and Technology Help. Even our library events hold a wealth of information for the community and are open for age-appropriate bookings (children’s and adulting programming). Sunshine Coast Council honours all Companion Card holders at all Council and Libraries events.
