Swansea National
I was extrememly angry, pist off and upset yesterday morning when I turned up for the Swansea round of the micros. I'd picked up Sam from London, driven to Swansea to stay overnight in a nearby hotel, then when we got to the club the next day, there we're stairs everywhere! After all that, we had to just get back in the car and drive home (Sam is a wheelchair user if you didn't already know).
I've calmed down now, but was fuming for so long with no one or thing to vent my frustration at. I could let my paranoia run riot, but that wouldn't achieve anything.
Can I please ask the powers that be, to clearly state whether a venue is wheelchair friendly or not in future. That simply means saying if there are stairs / ramps or whatever into the building. I know this currently only affects me and Sam, but I know of a few other people it could possibly affect too. If I remember, I'll also mention it at the EGM. I don't think it needs a resolution or anything, just someone to remember to mention it.
I know I could have come without Sam, and there have been a few places and times when I have. But that tends to be places that take less time to get to in the first place.
This isn't a rant, however much it might sound like, but I do need to get it off my chest.
