Our CEO here at DENW, Mel Close, was recently interviewed on The Other Side of Blackpool Podcast – a podcast that shares the lives of local people in Blackpool – this edition entitled “Disabled rights in Blackpool : ’25 years behind'”.
1 in 4 residents in Blackpool say they are disabled, and this podcast gives an insight into using some of the local public facilities with a range of disabilities. Mel shares the context of the disabled persons movement and the impact on the local spaces, and why change in legislation is super important.
