Closed petition Disability changing facilities and decent access in all venues to be law.
Closed on
I would like it to become statutory that all publicly accesisble businesses, whether they be a restaurant, a medical surgery or a retail store/centre are required to have disabled changing facilities involved in their bathroom facilites and braille on menus, notice boards etc.
Disabled people are not having their basic needs met of having an accessible changing facility. How are you meant to change an incontinent child in most shopping centres, trains, bus stations etc? Likewise, those with visual impairments should be able to read signs, notice boards, bus and train station timetables and menus through braille yet they can't? It's disgraceful and disappointing that we are far behind in making the country more inclusive for residents. We can do so much better
