The Removing Barriers Game
Disabled people should receive the same levels of service and access as anyone else. If you’re providing a service, it’s essential that you make it as inclusive and accessible as possible. Training is key to helping organisations and staff understand the challenges faced by disabled people.
The first step is to understand the issues, and think about services & facilities in the way that
disabled people do. Once we recognise the barriers faced by disabled people, we can think about
how
we remove them. Barriers can often be overlooked because service-providers just don’t realise
that
they exist.
The Removing Barriers Game is designed to raise awareness of the barriers faced by disabled
people,
helping players understand what real life issues still exist, before focussing on what they can
do
to remove these barriers.
