Tesco, good, occasionally busy later. Sainsbury's, moderate to good, rough in toilet roll aisle. Asda, slight to moderate, heavy crowds by evening. M&S and Co-Op, fair. Waitrose, fair to moderate. Lidl, rough at first, easing later. And that's the end of the Shopping Forecast.

When are we going to learn that the so called 'experts' are not always the best people to design spaces and places for us to visit and inhabit. We need to work collaboratively. Consultation is great but engagement really informs the process -enduser is key! #inclusivedesign

Only 7/10 for this signage. Nice and large with contrast and symbols but this venue actually has an #accessible toilet and a #ChangingPlaces toilet. It's such a pity that money has been spent on these facilities but they're not signposted.

Great insight from @aboutaccess just now on @RadioHumberside A local business with an international profile and under-used locally.
A third of gigs give 'no access information' for disabled fans, suggests charity - goo.gl/alerts/DhKKY #GoogleAlerts
