Disabled People's Guide

Disabled People's Guide is the first of its kind in Eden and has been produced by the Eden Forum for Disabled Access using information gathered by surveys and will be updated and added to on and after completion of access appraisals undertaken by Members of the Eden Forum for Disabled Access.

The main emphasis is on access for disabled people to the services and facilities in the Eden Valley. By doing this it is hoped to open doors to many other groups and visitors, to enable them to take the full advantage of the area. Many of our market towns have listed buildings of historical interest and we recognise the restrictions they place on disabled people. Wherever possible suitable accessible points have been found and the guide will point out these places in an effort to provide clear information.

Whilst every care has been taken to provide accurately up-to-date information, we are aware it is sometimes general and people have special needs. If you need to query accessibility to premises a telephone call will confirm their suitability.
