Falkirk Area Disability Access Panel

Service category: Adult health & wellbeing, Advice and Information, Carers, Children & families, Information, Learning Disabilities, Older people, People, Physical Disability, Young people

Access Panels work to improve physical access and wider social inclusion in their local communities. They are made up of groups of local volunteers, including disabled people, who come together to improve access in their local communities.

This doesn’t just mean access to the built environment. Access Panels are increasingly concerned with ‘access’ in the fullest sense, including: roads; employment; education; health; transport; the countryside and leisure and recreation, etc.
