Lewis Herman Reserve-NSW First Dementia Friendly Parkland
Community Based Initiative of the Year Award
NSW/ACT
Submission Overview
In 2018 Inner West Council commenced development of a master plan for a brand-new parkland in located in Holden Street Ashfield. Consisting of approximately 3,600m² the parkland is bordered to the south by the Ashfield Baptist Homes. Through careful site specific master planning the vision for a dementia friendly parkland was developed and nurtured with the community. Dementia friendly parks are about “gentle inclusion” and the provision of facilities which are designed with the whole community in mind, they are in the real sense intergenerational.
