Everyone is welcome: Zoetermeer is boosting accessibility
Did you know that as many people as possible in Zoetermeer should be able to participate, regardless of any physical disability or chronic illness? The municipality of Zoetermeer is fully committed to this goal. A special grant is now available to help businesses, associations, and organizations make their buildings, outdoor spaces, or digital services more accessible. Think of wheelchair-accessible entrances, clear signage, or a website that’s easy for everyone to use—it makes a world of difference!
Help make Zoetermeer more accessible
Now is the time to think about what you can do to make your location or website accessible to people with disabilities. Perhaps it involves small adjustments, such as a ramp, a video intercom, or an automatic door. Perhaps it requires a larger investment, such as a wheelchair-accessible restroom, widening an entrance, or a digital accessibility scan conducted by an expert. You don’t have to pay for it all yourself, because the municipality is ready to support you.
Organizations in Zoetermeer can apply for a grant once a year to improve both physical and digital accessibility. All you need to do is consult with people with physical disabilities (or their representatives) to determine what is truly needed. Once your application is approved, you can get started—receive the grant first, then make the investment.
