All businesses to have disabled access including a ramp and moving space inside.

What the petition asks

A lot of small businesses don't have disabled access, preventing people (like my mother who was diagnosed with rheumatoid and osteoarthritis a few years back) entering shops. Some that do have a ramp to allow the disabled into the store don't have enough space to allow navigation around the store.
Please help make it illegal for shops to not have disabled access (a ramp and enough space inside) as this prevents people, like my mother, entering shops whatsoever.
