Out and about with a wheelchair.

We do a lot of getting outside, and find that there are a lot of surprising places wheelchairs can get to. The new (2008) site Walks With Wheelchairs is building up a database of excellent walks, and we hope to be able to contribute to this in due course.

Until I get round to doing that, we would be glad to share any knowledge we have with others. Here is a list of some of what we do know about accessibility for wheelchairs:

• We know a lot about North and West Gloucestershire.
• We know quite a lot about Pembrokeshire.
• We know a more than a bit about the Lake District.
• We know a bit about West and South Cornwall.
• We know a little about the Western Highlands of Scotland, and Skye. We have stayed in or near Gairloch, Waternish on Skye, Gruinard and Strontian.
• We know quite a bit about the North York Moors.
• We go regularly to theatres and concerts in Cheltenham, Stratford, Malvern and Bath.
• We have been twice on the Norwegian Coastal Voyage, a.k.a (in Norwegian) Hurtigruten.

Also, we know about wheelchair-friendly self-catering cottages in many of the above places.

Please get in touch with us for any information we can give you about these places.

In the meanwhile, here are some more photos of Anne in unlikely places!
