Good afternoon

Loughborough University in the UK is running an online survey into how different forms of information help wheelchair users feel more confident when planning to travel to unfamilier locations.

This is the Free Traveller project. All you have to do to take part is visit www.freetraveller.co.uk where you will be shown a few maps with travel information. After this you are given a few questions about your opinions. In return you will be entered into a prize draw to win £150 from Loughborough University.

This research is open to all wheelchair users worldwide between 18 and 65.

I just took me time to do this survey, not because of the money, i asked for the donation to go to a spinal charity.

All of us who use public transport know full well how hard it is to use...even when we get to the venue, its hardly as great as it can be as we recover from the journey there..knowing full wll we have t do it all ovr again, this time for worn out than before.

This survey will educate you and hopefully may be abl to make big changes..even if its only a satnat version for us wheelies - or as i believe walking wounded as steps/ramps etc are just as much of an issue to us.

..come on, we want changes...stuff like this gets us the chance to have changes made. Evne if its just help with planning a route....

Thanks loughborough students .
