Is London too inaccessible?
City Hall politicians said a group should be formed to discuss accessible design for the London PlanDisabled people face too many access problems across London, City Hall politicians have warned.
The committee investigation found that the current London Plan did not have "enough emphasis on embedding inclusive design to enable disabled people to live independently in their local communities or across London". Ms Wilmot, who provided evidence to the committee, said: "The reality is that most buildings, homes and places, even new ones, do not enable disabled people to enjoy the same opportunities in their local community that non-disabled people take for granted."They added: "The Mayor is committed to working with deaf and disabled people's organisations, charities, civil society organisations, businesses and other partners to understand and tackle barriers faced by disabled people.
