With work well underway to construct an online guide to accessible venues across Sevenoaks District, local residents are being urged to nominate any building or facility that they feel should be included in the guide.
Sevenoaks District Council has teamed up with DisabledGo, a National Accessibility Project, to produce an online guide to venues that are open to the general public.
Following consultation in March with representatives of disabled groups, DisabledGo drew up a list of venues to be included in the guide.
It is not too late to make suggestions for any additional venues that could be included. To nominate a venue please contact Anna Borthwick, the Partnership Manager for DisabledGo, by calling 01438 842710 or by e-mailing

Throughout May and early June, fully trained DisabledGo researchers will be visiting up to 1,000 venues from goods and service providers to hotels, tourist attractions to nightclubs and pubs to local libraries to establish how accessible they are to people with disabilities.
The completed guide is expected to go live by late summer or autumn 2007.
