The All Abilities Playground, Kurrawa Park, Broadbeach

Gold Coast City Council and Disability Services Queensland joined forces to create the Gold Coast's first 'All Abilities Playground' at Kurrawa Pratten Park, Broadbeach.  The park has proved extremely popular, providing an innovative, unique and entertaining play space for kids of all ages!

The playground incorporates sensory, motor, imaginative and educational aspects of play and was designed to enable children with disabilities to play outdoors and side by side with their friends and siblings.  Click here for more information.

Liberty Swing

The “Liberty Swing” is designed to provide enjoyment for children with disabilities and special needs. This equipment is donated by the Variety Club, and is available for use by special groups and individuals with their carers. 

Access will only be gained by application to the Gold Coast City Council for a Liberty Swing Key. The key will unlock the gate, swing and toilet facilities in the park. 

The Liberty Swing is a fantastic piece of playground equipment and thus due care of the equipment and respect for the safety of users must be considered at all times.  After use, the gate must be locked upon leaving. 

The key can be collected from the Gold Coast City Council offices at 135 Bundall Road, Surfers Paradise between 8am to 4pm.
