Create a national card for disabled people
There are times when disabled people cannot access things most people take for granted. Reasonable adjustments are made but this often only happens if suitable evidence is provided and many businesses, leisure facilities and attractions have their own rules on what evidence is appropriate.
One form of evidence in the form of a Government-issue disability card, stating the reasonable adjustments a person requires, should make accessing things easier or possible for disabled people.
There are barriers to accessing places that could easily be removed. We currently have a range of disability cards in the UK (CEA card, Access card and DID card) but they are only accepted in a select few places other places require medical evidence or Government documents.
