Summary

Galway’s finally rolling out beach mats for wheelchair users at Ballyloughane and Silverstand Beaches—after a three-year wait and tide-related delays. Local reps called the delay an “embarrassment,” but now, with funding and a pilot program backed by the Irish Wheelchair Association and a university, they’re testing the mats with a tide-aware schedule and secure storage. Feedback will guide a permanent setup, though access to beach wheelchairs remains a hurdle—still, this is a major step toward inclusive coastal access.
