What disability?

A disability need not prevent someone from enjoying the many pleasures caravanning can bring. In fact, for many, horizons have been broadened and their lives enriched thanks to a determination not be beaten.
A disability need not hinder someone's enjoyment of touring and sightseeing, but rather to enhance the pleasure of the experience and to allow them to enjoy it more intensely.
They also realise more clearly how limited their lives would be without the stimulus touring and travel provide.
  • It is important that those who have been put off trying caravan holidays because of a disability should not hold back any longer, and take the plunge.
  • Those already enjoying caravanning despite their disability should constantly seek ways of making life even easier.
  • Site owners, caravan makers and producers of caravan accessories should constantly be aware of the needs of the disabled, and accommodate them in every way possible.

Anything is possible

A Caravan For the Disabled
Caravans and wheelchairs at first glance appear an unlikely combination.
However, with the right conversion it isn't impossible, as more and more disabled caravanners are proving. Most caravan manufacturers can supply modified versions of their models, often at no extra cost.
Folding campers too can be modified to increases the door width and provides ramps to accommodate a wheelchair.
This can be done to special order at no extra cost for the conversion and a small charge for the ramps, providing the camper is made to order.

CARAVAN USER
Caravan User Caravan user has been set up to give disabled members of the public (specifically wheelchair users) the ability to find all the information they need to plan the perfect holiday without the worrying if a site is disabled friendly or not.
Each site that has been reviewed by Caravan User will have a full review pointing out all the necessary information a disabled wheelchair user will need, i.e. park surfaces & condition, access to park amenities, pitch surfaces & condition, terrain of the park and many other things that able bodied people innocently take for granted. There will also be pictures of the site and important areas and a video showing you the directions to the site and also around the site to enable you to literally see before you go. www.caravanuser.co.uk
