National Accessible Scheme, England

URL: http://www.tourismtrade.org.uk/quality/assessmentstandards/NationalAccessibleScheme/default.asp

Developed following extensive review with accommodation providers, guests and many organisational bodies representing people with disabilities, together with the other National Tourist Boards, the scheme provides a set of accessible standards against which establishments are assessed for their accessibility and awarded a rating. Standards for serviced, self-catering accommodation and holiday parks cover three types of impairment: mobility, hearing and visual.
