Under the ‘Play for all’ initiative, ETD is proud to partner with Chartered Institute of Personnel Management (CIPM), who supported this venture as the sponsor, to keep this journey going. It announces that a brand new inclusive park has now opened at the Epex Park (adjacent to the BRC grounds).

At the opening, CIPM Member Services Committee Chairman Jayantha Abeyratne said that they were very happy to see that their proceeds, from the ‘Great HR walk’ fundraiser, were used for such a noble and innovative cause. CIPM President Dhammika Fernando added, “The education of children begins through play and this park will help children understand the unique differences of people and accept each other through their common bond which is joy.” The park is retrofitted with wheelchair accessible swings and merry-go-rounds, as well as accessible pathways, which are all complemented by an aesthetic background.

This park fruition was a step in the right way, according to The Enable the Disabled Foundation President Jezaayar Hassendeen. She also added that without the parents and children who graced this occasion none of this would have been possible and she is greatly indebted to their support. She also stressed on the fact that without the support of donors, such as CIPM, these ventures would never have seen the light of day and that she is grateful for their contributions. Her gratitude also extends to the board of management members from TMC (The Management Club) and members of ETD for their unstinting support at all times. She mentioned that the success of the smooth operation for this initiative was all thanks to the Government officials from the Colombo Municipality, led by Titus Perera, and also to the Western Province Governor Dr. Seetha Arambepola.
