Accessibility - Australia |
|
Many destinations have implemented access and facilities to cater for
people with various impairments and disabilities. Throughout this site, we have
provided
information and links for those places and services that do, as well as links
to other related-resources. If
you know of other places in Australia that provide services for those with
disabilities, send us the details, to
be listed in AusEmade. Where we do have services listed which cater for
those with disabilities (remembering that not all services listed
may have indicated that they do), you will see the disabled
accessible services icon.
If you are already listed on this site
and we have not included the disabled accessible services icon,
and you offer such services,
send us an email to update your
listing.

listings, enter the following phrase in inverted commas ie "Disabled
accessible services" in our search box. You will then be provided
with a list of services who carry that icon. |
