What is an Access Panel?

Panels are made up of volunteers who work together to improve physical access and wider social inclusion in their local communities.

​

They typically consist of about a dozen representatives, made up of individuals, people from organisations, some with disabilities and others with an interest in disability and accessibility issues.
