So he checks, he notes … Dublin, Belfast, Galway: Are there access ramps and are they working? Are there elevators and adapted toilets? Is it easy to get on and off the controls?

No info or review by another wheelchair user. “Goal of the gameHe said BBC, This is to avoid really unpleasant surprises, and all people with disabilities can go where they want, the goal is equality.

It’s another goal, to challenge, to highlight the issue of accessibility, so that in the long run, one day, it will not happen again, so the mistakes, shortcomings and obstacles are obvious to everyone. James does not intend to stop in Ireland. After visiting the 32 counties on the island, he wants to go to Europe and more distant places.
