Mike Adams, Chief Executive of ECDP, will be appearing on Dream 107FM radio news bulletins throughout today (Wednesday 26 March). He will be commenting on current issues of physical access for disabled people to stores like the Post Office and WH Smith in Chelmsford town centre.

On the issue, Mr Adams said: "Access for all disabled people, and not just those in wheelchairs, should be a key consideration for people who run shops and businesses. The key message is that businesses shouldn’t see disabled people as a problem, but instead recognise the potential buying power of the disabled pound."
