When Places, Services and Attitudes Shut People Out
The second part looks at how inaccessible places, services and attitudes affect work, education, health care and community life—and what government, businesses and communities can do differently.
The conversation
What happens when a place says everyone is welcome, but its services and attitudes tell a different story? Part 2 explores the everyday effects of exclusion and the changes that can make businesses, public services and communities more accessible.
Questions we’ll explore
- Connect everyday barriers with their wider effects.
- Explore respectful assistance and better services.
- Consider practical action across our communities.
