Hospitality, Catering, Licensed & Visitor Attractions - Access Audits and Consultancy

These categories mainly embrace commercial operations, that need to balance good practice in accessibility with the appropriate cost benefit to their business.

It should be remembered that we are not just thinking about wheelchair access, so that steps to the front door, a feature of many small hotels, means access is impossible. The hotel could be made more user friendly to guests with other ambulant physical and sensory impairments.

Enjoyments is a key feature of the classifications above, and therefore deprivation of that or perceived discrimination against disabled customers are likely to give rise to legal claims here more than any other category.

More positively, disabled customers enjoying the experience are likely to be very loyal and be accompanied by non-disabled friends, colleagues and relatives.
