## Resource

Beaconsfield Pool just got a major upgrade—new ramps, updated washrooms, and a pool lift—making it fully accessible for everyone, including those with mobility challenges. Priced at nearly $100,000 and funded by federal and municipal dollars, this transformation lets residents like Gilles Chalifour finally enjoy summer without pain or exclusion. Pool president Dave Whipps says they built it with inclusivity in mind—and now they’re hoping to inspire other West Island pools to follow suit, proving small changes can open up big worlds of recreation and belonging.
