In this episode, we dive deep into the everyday challenges faced by wheelchair users, highlighting the significant gap between claimed accessibility and actual experience. Sharing personal stories from travel mishaps to inaccessible public places like hotels, pharmacies, and concert venues, we underscore the critical need for genuine accessibility. From narrow doorways to steep ramps and poorly designed facilities, we hope to enlighten and challenge viewers to rethink accessibility in their environments. This episode also touches on the importance of custom-built wheelchairs and the detailed considerations that go into making a space truly accessible.
