Replying to @SW_Help
@SW_Help @GWRHelp 1/3 Hi I am registered blind & rely on public transport. I’m trying to understand whether it will be possible to do a return journey from Yeovil Junction to Southampton Central with the outward journey being the 29th December and the return being the 30th.

@SW_Help @GWRHelp 2/3 I’ve copied both of you in as I think SWR would be responsible for the part of my journey from Yeovil to Salisbury then GWR from Salisbury to Southampton.

@SW_Help @GWRHelp 3/3 I have checked both your websites for planned engineering/disruption but I’m struggling to understand the information & getting a bit confused. Can you help please?

#DisabledByTheRailway On way to hospital appointment , ticket office shut. Needed support from passenger to use ticket machine. We need ticket offices open. They provide so many services and useful support with journey planning and advice @RMTunion

It’s a shame that @Moorfields and @CareQualityComm both decided to ignore this. Moorfields now have a formal complaint which in my view could have been avoided.
1/2 Hi @CareQualityComm I’m registered severely visually impaired (blind). When I was last seen at the Glaucoma outpatient clinic at @Moorfields on 24th April they wrote in a letter to my GP ‘A follow up appointment has been arranged for 6 months.’

1/6 Well that was kind of the GWR telephone assistance booking team from Sheffield ‘We don’t usually check on blind passengers if the lifts are broken (at Bristol Parkway) because they should be able to walk.’

7/8 If it wasn’t that I feel that I’d get in trouble Health & Safety wise I’d suggest that employee who spoke to me on the phone go up and down the stairs at Bristol Parkway on their own wearing a blindfold and see how they feel about it.

8/8 Now I’ve got that off my chest I’d just like to say that for visually impaired people I think the assistance meeting point at Bristol Parkway shpuld be downstairs not up two floors.

I think this petition is mainly for Scotland but I’ve signed it as I fully agree. Audio announcements at all bus stops for visually impaired people change.org/p/audio-announcem…

2/2 Obviously this means I should have been seen by now but Ive received no appt & when I’ve chased it they are now saying they’ve a backlog so I won’t be seen for another 2 months. I’m concerned about this. I understand theyre busy but they don’t seem to care. Anything I can do?

It was lovely to meet the new permanent member of staff at Yeovil Pen Mill station on Tuesday. She did my assistance and my first impression was very positive 👍👍

More venues & events are only accepting Nimbus access card as proof of disability. We're calling on the government to stop this by forcing these events to accept government letters or official medical proof which you can get for free. Please sign it! petition.parliament.uk/petit…

#DisabledByTheRailway If anyone has to use St Pancras for international or national travel and is a disabled person, the lift is out of action again as of 11am this morning and they don’t know when it will be fixed @TLRailUK @Eurostar @johnpringdns @Tanni_GT

Why is it so hard for the GWR Passenger Assistance booking telephone team in Sheffield to understand I want to go from Yeovil Pen Mill to Bristol Parkway Tuesday but for my return journey Wednesday I want to board at Bath?
