we were thinking the isle of wight, so its not to far to travel, but somewhere diferent.
the clients do have choice in this holiday, they would like to go to isle of wight, but obviously we need to make sure the accomodation is suitable for all users, weve have many holiday before, its a case of finding places they having been.

oh yes, and Ghetto Granny – you are just the biggest looser going, and actually, there spelling is much better than yours, get a life! if any one needs to go to an island and be bombed its low lifes like yourself!

    Hi Marie, Having been on a number of short holidays with people with disabilities, both physical and cognitive impairments. I can tell you you need to do a fair bit forward planning is needed. Ideally you should actually visit the venue you want to book, however this may not always be possible, so you need to ask lots of questions. Things to look at or ask, when booking; Is there wheelchair ramps and or rails, to access and exit buildings and bedrooms. Are the bedrooms you want on the ground floor. Are they rooms spacious, for maneuverability in around the room for wheel chairs. Equally important the bathroom access needs to be very spacious, with hand rails etc. Do they have any lifting & transferring equipment? Access to the phone for emergencies and where is the closest hospital. Menus - what type of meals do they provide, do they offer special dietary needs such as gluten free. Or do they have self catering. Is there some where your staff can prepare and clean peg feeding equipment etc. Laundry access if needed. list of activities they offer for the disabled in the local area. Also ask if they offer discounts for group bookings for the disabled.
