The City of Greater Geelong, in partnership with Variety, is creating an inclusive play space at Rippleside Park. Rippleside Park has been a site where children and families have played for many years. This new inclusive playspace will be a unique place where people of all ages and abilities will be able to play alongside each other.
It will become a key community hub, and form part of a national network of inclusive play spaces that Variety has helped create.
Address: Variety Livvi’s Place Rippleside, Geelong, Victoria
We’re excited to share the concept designs for the Rippleside Park Inclusive Playspace. Visit the Council’s website to check out the designs and give your feedback by 5pm, 30 August.
A Variety Livvi’s Place is an inclusive playspace for kids of all ages and all abilities to play side by side. Variety will work with the community to make an inclusive playspace a reality.

In 2018 Variety joined forces with the Touched by Olivia Foundation to continue their work with local communities across Australia. The partnership sees the creation of more inclusive playspaces, now known as ‘’Variety Livvi’s Place”. Both organisations contributed to the NSW Government’s Everyone Can Play Guidelines, created to ensure that all playspaces are inclusive for all people, regardless of age and ability. These guidelines are the foundation of Variety Livvi’s Place at Rippleside.
