We were so sorry to learn of the passing of Euan MacDonald MBE.
His aspiration to give disabled people the freedom to live their lives to the full leaves an enduring legacy.
We will continue to support Euan's Guide colleagues as they continue his important work.

Had a great day hosting @APPGCW on their first “Walk and Wheel” and presenting to them our new exciting London Vision, focused on delivering a place that is more accessible, diverse and sustainable for all our visitors and customers.
It's incredible to see sports venues making steps forward to provide equal experiences for their supporters, such as the Unite for Access campaign at @ChelseaFC.
This includes #accessibility provisions such as a sensory room, BSL and audio commentary: zurl.co/X9g4 👏
