https://t.co/N4dQ9XnGiF is an example of where labelling homes effectively makes them visible to people with accessible housing needs on listings when searching. This one has step-free access and lateral living. It's an unusual layout that could really work & comes with extra PP.
#Accessibility was included in the Material Information updates. Specifically, describing three new property attributes where they exist: Step Free Access, Wet rooms & Lateral Living (clearly defined). Making these homes visible on portals is an essential piece of the jigsaw.
SOUTHPORT PR8. Redecorated 1,000sq ft, two bedroom, ground floor property with wet room, garden & EV charging. Available now. Landlord wants to make it available for another #wheelchair user. Ramped entrance at rear of property, via hard paved path. Contact for info & viewings

Horrific. THOUSANDS of Ukrainian children have been taken by Russia - with many sent to re-education camps to replace their love of Ukraine with "a love of mother Russia"
@RishiSunak and @JamesCleverly - Sanction the abductors. Bring Ukraine's Stolen Children home
@Accor If you don't have accessible family rooms, then preventing me booking an accessible double room w/ 2 small kids due to "raisons de sécurité et d’assurances" is discriminatory & trying to sell me a separate room for them is not ok. How can I speak to someone about this pls?
