Belper - The Accessible Town
Audits / Accessible Assessments
The Purple Pound
One in five people are disabled and this means that nationally businesses are losing out on £212 BILLION per year because they are unable to access these services.
As Accessible Belper is a movement of people from across the community who experience a number of health conditions or disabilities we are able to advise businesses about how to make their premises and services accessible for all.
Our assessments are free and can offer advice about ensuring the safety and comfort of business clients experiencing Dementia, visual impairment, hearing loss or mobility difficulties including wheelchair users. We are also able to sign post people to local support agencies who can provide comprehensive Access Audits under the Equality Act.
It is vital that people can plan their visit in advance, so having an Accessibility Statement on your website is key.
Please use the attached self assessment tool to examine your premises or meeting place.
If you would like more assistance please contact us.
Our website will have links to all shops and services with Accessibility Statements.
