Make Way Day is a National Public Awareness Campaign that highlights the issues people with disabilities face getting around their local communities. "Hey, this blocks my way!" is the message.

The theme for this year’s campaign is 
“Make Way in My 5k”

We once again take aim at obstacles like cars on the footpath, while taking measures to keep a safe distance. However, with the ongoing COVID pandemic we need to adapt the Make Way Day campaign for this year.

You will be invited to undertake a survey of your area with an online easy-to-use tool we designed. People will be empowered to give their 5K or area a rating from one to five stars depending on the obstacles they come across.

The tool is mobile friendly and is used to draw attention to anything that represents an access problem. This quick and easy exercise is mainly picture-based, and people can use it as often as they like on the day.
