Some background information on our braille and tactile signs:
These signs are an effective, yet inexpensive, means of initial implementation of the National Disability Council's guidelines on equality of access. They help people with restricted or no vision as well as those with good sight and use grade 1 Braille, which is the most widely used by readers. The system incorporates braille as well as raised letters and pictograms, presented in strong contrasting colours and forming on of the early "reasonable adjustments" required by the Disability Discrimination Act (1995).
The Disability Discrimination Act 1995 (DDA)
The DDA was developed so changes could be made which makes it unlawful to discriminate against disabled people. Part three of the act came into force on 1st October 2004. All providers of goods, facilitiesor services must take action to make reasonable adjustments to the physical features of their premises by this date. Braille and tactile signs and labels are an essential part of these changes, ensuring easier access for the UK's 2 million blind and partially sighted people. Businesses affected include:
Hotels, guest houses and hostels, shops, pubs and restaurants, offices, schools, colleges and universities, libraries, leisure facilities, and all other buildings with public access.
