Module 3: RESPECT LIFE

(Page 12) Worksheet 4 (continued)

activity three - home and community

This activity has two tasks:

a To decide what would need to be done to make homes like yours accessible to someone in a wheelchair.

b To plan an evening or a Saturday out together, deciding where you would go and how you would get there. What problems would arise if one of your group was in a wheelchair?

• Mark problem places on a map of your route.
• Investigate what is available to help people who have different disabilities to get about in the community

You will need to decide:

• how your group is organised to complete the task
• how to record your findings
• what improvements you suggest
• to whom will you take these suggestions and the paragraph you wrote in question 1
