Barrier-Free Environments for Disabled and Older People
The Vassall Centre Trust, a charity led by disabled people, is transforming a former military hospital in Bristol to make it fully accessible for people with all forms of impairment, to empower them and enable them to work on equal terms with non-disabled people. The fully accessible David Hiatt Baker Conference Centre is based within the Vassall Centre.
"The Vassall Centre reacts positively and practically to the challenge of barriers, applying common sense to find ingenious solutions in creating more inclusive environments"
George Ferguson, former President of the Royal Institute of British Architecture (RIBA) 2003-2005.
