Euan’s Guide – Disabled Access Reviews Website

SDEF are delighted to announce a new partnership with Euan’s Guide – the brand new disabled access reviews website.
They aim to provide a service to disabled people and very much hope SDEF members will find it useful and worthwhile too

What is Euan’s Guide?

www.EuansGuide.com went live on 1st November 2013. Euan MacDonald, Founder and himself a powerchair user, says "The goal of Euan's Guide is to provide a friendly, honest & empowering alternative to hours of web searching and phone calls and, most importantly, remove the ‘fear of the unknown’ when visiting a place for the first time."

They already have over 350 reviews & venues listed already in over 75 towns/cities across the UK and plan to go international as soon as possible in 2014. Edinburgh is currently the most reviewed Scottish city and even at this early stage demonstrates how useful the site can be to people that live in, work in or visit the city.

December was a busy month for Euan’s Guide as not only did we put in place the foundations of the partnership but they featured on STV and had Professor Stephen Hawking endorse the site “EuansGuide.com helps people with disabilities and their carers give an open and honest account of a venue's accessibility, good or bad. This means that users can check before they go whether a venue will cater for their needs. The site will make a huge difference for people across the UK, giving them a reliable source of information to help plan their leisure, personal and business activities”.

Access Panels will be able to get involved in providing the reviews for this website, and further information will be available in the SDEF Open Door which will be published next month!
