remember it was not the parliament who instigated the change, but the
tireless work of one blind individual.

That's because in Scotland we have our own parliament. I wonder if we would
have had the national free travel card had we not had the parliament.

Travel and entertainment? Hmmm. Perhaps you needn't have to look further
than governments? Halfprice BBC license, free train travel? British
Airways
half price air travel? Okay, not sure about BA, but Air Canada offers cut
prices within Canada to blind and VI passengers. Could be the same with
BA.

Hello,
Firstly, thanks to everyone who sent over suggestions of web sites that offered different special offers online, as opposed to over the phone or in person.
I'm hoping I can get your help again, with a slightly different thing.
This is part of some research I'm doing for Radio 4's In Touch program, so with luck we can make a significant impact with a widespread audience.
I'm looking for organisations that have special offers, reductions or deals for people with disabilities, in the following sectors:
*Travel. *Entertainment, CDs, DVDs etc. *Food, supermarkets. *Finance, insurance etc.
I'm also still on the lookout for companies that make offers available only on their web site, which they won't make available over the phone or in person.
If anyone can help, please mail me offlist to tink@xxxxxxxxxx or on list if you feel it would be of use to all.
Thanks for any help.
Tink.
