Tanni Grey-Thompson urges severe penalties after train ordeal
The 11-time Paralympic gold medallist says change is needed after she was forced to "crawl off" a train.
KB F and alliejay1 Comment-
Similar to that poor woman on the Air Canada flight who was hauled off the plane in a broken aisle chair, unsecured in any fashion, & taken down the very high stairs by three airport employees. She kept telling them “no”. And the majority of comments called her “ungrateful!”

To be honest I am not surprised. While I did not yet use a wheelchair when I lived in the UK, I noticed disabled assistance seemed to depend more on how efficient the staff at the station were and in some cases it was very spotty. It really should not be a struggle.

Accessible walks in Sheffield
I was approached by a lady on my group to help share her website, made by her disabled husband, of disabled accessible walks in asks around Sheffield.
There are plans to extend the website to include places further afield, users can submit walks with pictures and video footage
