INTRODUCTION
• Inclusive play is an important step in creating inclusive communities. • Like all playgrounds inclusive playgrounds rely on ACCESS
and ENGAGEMENT.

ACCESS
• Access is not just a physical issue, but also social and emotional.• Social access includes gathering spaces and spatial
arrangements.• Emotional access for neurologically impaired users requires
a space that is predictable. This is done using environmental cues.

CUEING
Environmental cues are the design intervention that allows access to a playground for those with an ASD.Colouring or texturing the ground plane assists in way finding in secondary spaces for those with an ASD and visual impairment.

ENGAGEMENT
• Access alone does not make a space inclusive.• Engagement requires the user’s ability to be the measure
not age.• Opportunities for inter-generational play.• Graduated challenges ensure the activities aren’t
intimidating.• Single use equipment allow those with an ASD to assess
potential social and physical contact.• Opportunities for Individual, Parallel and Group play

CONCLUSION
• Requirements for Access and Engagement of those with a disability are not special needs, they are just needs.• Inclusive playground design is creating a space that caters
to the diversity of the people that want to use it.• An inclusive playspace looks no different than a traditional
playground, its difference is in how the design interventions are interpreted by the users.
