Audit existing community buildings to determine accessibility, and put plans into place with service providers for agreement that all buildings/offices must be upgraded to become accessible. Staff accommodation for a 24/7 residential care facility in Angurugu. Construct a specialist training/education and resources centre (including provision of genetic education services/digital technology, etc) to support people with MJD and their families and to train/educate carers and the wider community. Footpaths in Angurugu, Umbakumba and Milyakburra so that wheelchair users are not forced to be on the road, and to allow access to the community in the wet season.
