The inaugural Bowen Island Municipality Accessibility Advisory Committee has diligently worked since November 2023 to complete this first Accessibility Action Plan. This marks an important milestone in our commitment to fostering a more inclusive and accessible community. Stay tuned for updates as we move into the implementation phase, guided by our newly appointed committee members for the upcoming term.

Accessibility on Bowen Island
Did you know that you can borrow medical equipment from the library? Crutches, wheelchairs, bathroom and bed assists… and more! Check out the Med Shed webpage.
And check out the Mountain Trike! It’s a manual, all-terrain wheelchair that you can take to the park and enjoy the trails.
