I'm not a member so dont feel you ahve any requirement to give info on this... but, how many disabled members do you have, and how unaccessible was the venue? I can imagine how hard 400+ venues are to come by without any other possible constraints.

Thanks Rooky.

We don't now how many Members we have with Mobility problems. I think it'd be discriminatory to ask, actually.

We had 3 guys at Event # 1 in wheelchairs, & they pay the same Membership dues as everyone else, & so are entitled to equal access.

It's between Junctions 5 and 6 of the M6.  You can see it from the motorway.  I would post a link to their website, but if I remember correctly it's absolutely shocking so I won't bother.

Remember guys - we did not announce a Venue in Scotland, & we have not announced the alternative venue.

We'd rather you did not speculate in public, as it leads to all sorts of probs.

Thanks.

3 out of the 120 members that turned up at broadways were in wheelchairs lets say that this is spread through the whole of the apat 2-3% of the membership are wheelchair users with 400 places we could have 8-12 members in wheelchairs turning up

maybe the first event was a quirk of stats and the 3 that turned up in wheelchairs are the only 3 wheelchair users in apat i feel that we (yes i am in a chair for those that dont know) have the same rights as everyone else to play

i for 1 am greatfull to the APA for taking this stand i wish the WPT the EPT and the european ranking would make a similair stand

Fair enough.

I just think if i was running a restaurant/club, for memebrs only, I could provide a better service by knowing how many people were vegetarians or didnt like spicy food etc... and my members in turn would recognise this benefit and be willing to provide (and benefit from) the info.

Point taken & understood Rooky - but the difference is, one chooses to be a vegatarian.
