Wheelchair Access at Cooks Hill Surf Club

Cooks Hill Surf Lifesaving Club will unveil wheelchair access to the beach this Sunday.

The $70 000 fundraising effort was a community response to a tragic cycling accident this year, which left club member Angus McConnell in a wheelchair.

The revolutionary modification includes a ramp and rubber matting to provide easy beach access for the mobility impaired.
