Show Notes

The Irish Wheelchair Association says its members are being discriminated against on a Blue Flag beach in Iorras, north Mayo, because they have been denied permission to use wheelchair accessible beach mats.

Wheelchair users now feel completely excluded and feel denied access to the beach.

Anna is joined by National Access Programme Manager of the Irish Wheelchair Association, Rosaleen Lally and Teresa Gaughan, one of the Access Group Members to discuss.
