able bodied people’s idea of wheelchair accessibility is laughable at best. listen. 

• if a wheelchair user has to go around to a back alley to get into your venue–it should not be called accessible 
• if your venue doesn’t have automatic doors–it should not be called accessible 
• if your venue’s washrooms are down a narrow hall that is difficult to navigate–it should not be called accessible 
• if your venue’s floorplan doesn’t factor in space for wheelchairs–it should not be called accessible 
• if your venue has steps leading in, or at any point inside, and no ramp is readily available–it should not be called accessible 

and that’s just 5 points from my foggy brain on wheelchair accessibility. they miss so many things and lose more potential customers than they realize and it’s ridiculous bc it would take 10 seconds of thought, but they can’t even give that. 

If your door is super heavy and only swings one way your venue is not accessible
