Provide funding to make the UK more wheelchair accessible

Closed 552 signatures

What the petition asks

We want the government to help make the UK more accessible to those who rely on wheelchairs.
We would like to see improvements to public transport, more dropped curbs and more disabled parking spaces across the UK.
Wheelchair users in the UK face challenges and inequality daily. This isn’t fair on themselves and their families who have to suffer as a result of this inequality.
The majority of wheelchair users rely on them due to injury or illness, their lives are then made harder because of the lack of access in the UK.
Lack of accessible transport, lack of dropped curbs, lack of picnic tables and a lack of parking spaces all create an inequality within our country.
