Wheelchair swing installed in Strovolos park

Strovolos municipality announced on Tuesday that one of its parks now includes a swing for children on wheelchairs.

The wheelchair swing – donated by GC School of Careers – has been installed at Acropolis park.

The funds for the purchase of the swing were collected through a number of actions and initiatives of the school’s Volunteers Club.

Strovolos municipality expressed its gratitude to the school for the donation. The addition of the swing to the park is part of the municipality’s organised efforts to upgrade its parks and introduce equipment also for children with mobility issues.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
