“I remember visiting the Grandview Heights Aquatic Centre in my hometown of Surrey BC and how impressed I was with the parking, despite the fresh snow that had fallen overnight.

 

There were many accessible parking spaces, cleared of snow that were easy to find and there was a direct route for us to get to the main entrance. There were helpful people at reception that directed us to the change rooms, showers, adult sized change table and where to find a pool wheelchair.

 

Being able to swim together and getting in and out of the pool without a struggle, was wonderful. Thanks to the adult sized change table, we were able to get dressed/undressed with ease and remember the time spent swimming, not the usual struggle.” (Booklet Positive Lived Experiences of Quality in the Built Environment 2023, p.97).
