Outdoor dining makes guide dog s job difficult, says visually impaired activist | Dumbarton and Vale of Leven Reporter

A visually impaired activist said councils need to do more after sharing a video of her guide dog struggling to navigate a pavement due to outdoor dining. Dr Amy Kavanagh tweeted on Saturday that outdoor dining had complicated her dog Ava’s job, and shared a video of her furry companion being held up by a pedestrian and a decorative plant in Soho. “Unfortunately, this time I got a face full of ornamental tree when walking through an outdoor restaurant,” she tweeted. “It’s bad enough that pavement was blocked with seating but do you really need to add hazardous decorations?!”

London elections: I don t feel welcome in this city

BBC News London elections: I don t feel welcome in this city Close Successive London mayors have promised to modernise the Tube network when it comes to making it more accessible for disabled people. But Katie Pennick, a campaigner for more accessible transport with the group Transport for All, says almost every promise has been broken. About 1.2 million disabled people live in London, according to the Papworth Trust, so Katie is now calling for the next mayor of London to make concrete promises on the issue. At the moment, only 81 out of 270 London Underground stations have step-free access , which means, if using a wheelchair, platforms and trains can be accessed via lifts, ramps and level surfaces.
