Tracy Dearing, our Regional Campaigns Officer for Yorkshire and Humberside is working with Sheffield Volunteer Campaign Coordinator Julie Swift, investigating the accessibility of local retailers. They have become increasingly concerned about:
-
Poor lighting and contrast
-
Accessibility of pricing
-
Assistance
-
Narrow aisles
-
Aisle obstructions
Tracy and Julie are currently pulling together their evidence and are planning to approach large retail chains with their findings, an update page will be posted on the Yorkshire and Humberside regional web pages later this Spring.
