    Thank you for your lovely messages. I was thinking somewhere warm but it also has to be in the school holidays. My son loves waterparks so I've seen a few all inclusive holidays to Turkey and Egypt. I can walk around a little on crutches but because I have nerve damage I can't feel my legs all the time and they feel really heavy and freezing cold. I was thinking of taking my electric wheelchair but was more worried about how they throw things around in the luggage area especially abroad.

    Hi @Smelly123 and welcome to the online forum 🙂 Holiday sounds exciting! A lot of the travel agents offer accessible holidays so it might be worth having a look at reviews from people on the travel agents websites. I've also added a travel expert link that might be helpful if you're looking for inspiration on locations and resorts below.
