Shop Accessibility

EDM number 2833 in 2005-06, proposed by Paul Holmes on 23/10/2006.

That this House considers accessibility to shops for the disabled to be an essential human right as recognised in law by the Disability Discrimination Act; welcomes the work of the local shop accessibility campaigning group Aspire in Chesterfield to achieve this in reality; recognises the support of the disability charity Leonard Cheshire in Aspire's campaign; supports Aspire's work in raising awareness of disability access in shops; congratulates the success of Aspire's action day in Chesterfield on Friday 20th October; applauds shopkeepers in Chesterfield for their positive response to Aspire's campaign; commends shops that have taken steps to make their premises accessible; and calls on all shops across the UK to work to ensure that they are fully accessible to disabled people.

This motion has been signed by a total of 42 MPs.
