Those living with disabilities or mobility issues often feel overlooked when it comes to car parking. The experiences of people like Ray highlight the impact this can have and encapsulates why the provision of disabled spaces should be more than a ‘tick-box’ exercise.

Lovely park and slides but really think staff need training to help guess with disabilities so they don’t get messed around like we just have! Sat feeling really disappointed wishing we had gone to #aquatica or # Disney
