The Way You Run Your Group |
|
|
| |
 |
If your groups is run by able-bodied folk it may well be that those less able are not considered when decisions are made.
The attitude of your group members towards serving disabled customers, particularly at public events, is just as important as the building in which the activity is taking place. |
|
|
|
|
| |
Awareness: consider how your group might work to include disabled people in its activities: performing, administrative and social.
We also recommend that you use the following wording within your group's publicity:
Name of group will make every attempt to accommodate all delegates comfortably. Please let us know of any special requirements you may have. The venue is suitable for the mobility impaired and conforms to the requirements of the Disability Discrimination Act (DDA). For any prices that apply, concessionary rates are available for the unwaged and for students. Carers accompanying disabled people will be allowed free entry. |
