About the campaign

Action for Access is the campaign for an accessible UK.

Every day disabled people face barriers to doing shopping, going to the cinema and theatre, paying their bills, using the bank and post office and having a drink in the pub. 

Despite equality laws, much of the UK still remain inaccessible to many disabled people.

Action for Access gives you the chance to start to put this right.  Whether you're a disabled person, a shopkeeper or business, a councillor or MP, or an interested individual, we can all take Action for Access.

Campaigners:

Download an access survey form and get started!  Survey local shops, pubs, businesses, sports venues, banks, buses, taxis, restaurants and anything else you come across in everyday life.  Enter your results into the website and see what other people in your area are saying about access.

Shopkeepers, businesses and service providers:

Whether you run a corner shop, a leisure complex or a holiday centre, you have a duty under the Equality Act 2010 to provide the same level of service to disabled customers as non-disabled customers.  Read more about the Equality Act and what you should be doing to make your business accessible to everyone.

MPs and councillors:

Talk to disabled people in your constituency about their experiences of access.  Check your own accessibility too - can disabled constituents access your surgery, access information and contact you in a variety of ways?
