Karatay Opens Turkey’s Largest Barrier-Free Living Center

Karatay Opens Turkey’s Largest Barrier-Free Living Center

Konya Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Ugur Ibrahim Altay and Karatay Municipality Mayor Hasan Kılca reviewed the completed construction of the Karatay Barrier-Free Living Center.


Mayor Altay stated that Konya's first and Turkey's largest Barrier-Free Living Center is a significant achievement for the city, while Hasan Kılca emphasized their efforts to make the center available to disabled citizens as soon as possible.


The Karatay Disability-Free Living Center, established by the Karatay Municipality to impact the education and social lives of disabled citizens, is the largest in Turkey and the first of its kind in Konya.


Hasan Kılca stated, "We continue to equip Karatay with special and new facilities. We reviewed the Karatay Barrier-Free Living Center together with Konya Metropolitan Municipality Mayor Uğur İbrahim Altay. With the protocol we signed with the Ministry of Family and Social Services, this facility we have brought to our district will provide education for our disabled individuals, and the families of our disabled brothers and sisters will be able to spend much more time with them. We built this facility for our most precious ones. Together with the Provincial Directorate of Family and Social Services, we will implement a great educational and rehabilitation model at this facility. As we always say, if we continue to love, remember, and care for each other, we will overcome all obstacles. As Karatay Municipality, we will continue our efforts for a barrier-free Karatay."
