Respondent: Access in Dudley

• A big percentage, if not all new builds should be disabled friendly e.g, wider doors for wheelchair access particularly for ground floor flats/apartments or bungalows.
• Level entry access to all premises whatever they are shops, schools, Doctors, any public buildings and homes.
• There should be a variety of ‘older peoples’ or disabled people accommodation including warden supervised flats and housing complexes for those who want to live independently but required some support within their own front doors.
• Hotels should have more disabled rooms available with wet rooms and room for wheelchairs to access and get around as well as connecting rooms for those who need a carer to stay with them.
• Started homes are needed again considered people with disabilities in mind.
• More rental properties are required and again suitable housing suitable for disabilities in this sector.
