    My poem is primarily meant to raise awareness, I am hoping many of you will be inspired to write blog or put into rhyme your experiences of challenge s. What’s in my poem is from personal experiences so I hope you alll understand that although it’s to raise awareness it has been written by me and only me. Thank you

    Hi Loony,

    Excellent! A very descriptive poem, thank you for sharing!

    Having been in Healthcare and in the Community, I have seen first hand how difficult it is for wheelchair users or even those with walking aids, whether it be one stick, two sticks or a walker to navigate places, especially in blocks of flats where the design has not been properly considered. I can relate to everything you mentioned (from a retired professional point of view), also from my own experiences now that I require a walking stick myself.

    Maybe launch a video on tiktok and youtube? But you need at least an actor, a cameraman and a director.

    Don't forget the rubbish bins/recycling bins that litter our pavements nowadays …people leave them out blocking pavements 24/7 - even when they have access to gardens through garden gates.

    My forward progress is often halted by these.
