Not only every council but trains, buses, airlines, accommodation etc as the DDA was in 1992 and very little has been achieved.

I had been feeling I would never be able to go places again, because I need someone to push the chair and it’s all too difficult. Now I am feeling enthused, and thinking solidly of arranging a trip – possibly to Uluru, since you were able to point out so many accessible features. I appreciate your honest remarks on different places and experiences. Thank you!

It’s just so hard to switch off from accessibility observations.

I found myself frequently laughing or nodding in agreement as I often do the exact same things for my site. Even when on a private vacation I can’t help but think “not sure when I’ll be back, so I should get a picture of that ramp…”

Thanks so much for letting us know what we do is helpful. We love hearing about your long term goal. Accessibility needs to be a project for every council.

I have an invisible disability and while I don’t always need the level of accessibility you are looking for, it is nice to find out which places have accessibility in mind. I also work in accessibility (in a municipality) and one of my long term projects is increasing Accessible Tourism in the area. I follow your blog to get ideas on what people are looking for when they travel with accessibility needs.
