Info This page was
inspired by a member who told me that when they travelled into Wales from
Devon they go via Gloucester to avoid the Bridge toll. Remember because you know,
it is not the case that we all know, so if you can add any item here then
please email me the details so we can all share. When you travel across the Severn Bridge
and you have a blue badge as driver OR passenger then you don't have
to pay any toll fee. Some are still
unaware that you can get a RADAR
key from your local council to open any disability toilet in the
country. All you have to do is produce your blue badge and pay a small fee
about 2.50 Npower Spreading

Access How often do you try and enter a shop
in a wheelchair and find the fixtures are obstructing your access or goods

proprietor that he/she has an obligation in law to assist
you. Part 3 of the Disability Discrimination Act makes it unlawful for
service providers to discriminate against disabled people by failing to
make reasonable adjustments. From 1st October 2004 this will include
considering reasonable adjustments to the physical features of your
premises so that goods, services and facilities are accessible for
disabled people. Able
