It was our pleasure to learn about your work in the recognition of cracks and potholes in street pavements.

Looking forward for the opportunity to collaborate and learn how we can extend that to footpaths!

Today, December 3rd is International Day for People with Disabilities!

It is the day to make our support for people with #disabilities visible, by also highlight the daily #accessibility challenges we all face.

#IDPWD20 #PurpleLights20 #IDPWD

[Crowd4Access @Crowd4Access]

Your daily actions matter! Show your support for people with #disabilities.

Beyond wearing purple today, ensure..

1. You park your car in designated spaces
2. Your car is not blocking a dropped kerb
3. Your wheelie bin is not blocking the footpath

#IDPWD2020 #PurpleLights20

[Galway City Council @GalwayCityCo]

Today is International Day of People with Disabilities.

Unexpected obstacles, such as parked cars on footpaths, can have a significant impact on the day of people living with a disability. Always remember, not all disabilities are visible. #IDPwD20 @DisabilityFed
