Well, I'm very happy to feed stuff back to ATOC and will certainly do so
on this discussion.

I think the point here is that we should all communicate. As a minority
group we need to be proactive ... and helpful to these services who
don't know how to cater for us and may well wish to.

        the obvious question is how does he know the demand is low?  it
is possibley still the case that most people eligible for the disabled
persons' rail card don't have access to computers but the amount that do
is clearly growing all the time.

                Following my enquiry to ATOC's head of inclusion and
accessibility, here's his response.  I'd asked him to put a text version
of the form up as an alternative to PDF and also wondered why it wasn't
possible to apply online.  He says:

                Ian, I will get a word version of the form organised.
As for online ren ewals at the moment there is v.low demand for this -
but we are monitoring the situation. At the moment the cost of providing
the facility outweigh the benefits.
