hi again, most know by now that i am disabled as is the twino.
we are planning to live together but want to start looking at ideas for wheelchair user interiors for our home. we hope to actually have two small apartments in same home, we have seen one recently, but bit expensive.
but we want to stay pos and love interior design at best of time.

Glad to help, there is loads of info on the net, check out citizens advice as well, your local TD might be able to do something for you also.

info building nicely bar the kitchen area!
 

yes i have seen a lot now that is very good now. i wonder anyone seen a visual of a kitchen for a disabled person?
that would be very informative indeed.
thanks everyone
