Do you provide support<br />

or care to someone who<br />

relies on you?<br />

Bristol City Council supports carers of all ages, and from all ethnic<br />

backgrounds. We recognise the importance of what carers do and work<br />

hard to find the best ways to support you. We can offer support in the<br />

following ways:<br />

• Carers assessments – to help you look at your caring role, the impact this<br />

may have on you, and your needs and wishes<br />

• Advice on benefits and sources of support in the community<br />

• When the person you look after is discharged from hospital<br />

• Planning for emergencies<br />

• Enabling carers to take flexible breaks by booking the breaks themselves<br />

If you want any further information, or to talk to someone about how we<br />

support carers, contact Care Direct:<br />

I have pleasure in welcoming you to the<br />

Bristol Access Guide 2012.<br />

The guide has been produced for disabled<br />

people who would like to visit Bristol and<br />

would like to know about access around the city<br />

centre and to various places of interest including<br />

shopping, entertainment and places to eat.<br />

I also hope that the guide is of interest to<br />

disabled people living in Bristol to give you<br />

ideas for exploring the city. The guide is also<br />

useful to non-disabled people who are looking<br />

for accessible places to visit with disabled<br />

friends, partners, family and colleagues.<br />

Access is more than a set of dimensions and<br />

more like a chain of events – the planning, journey,<br />

arrival, experience of a place and the return home.<br />

Therefore in this guide we have included:<br />

• A route for car drivers, which takes about<br />

an hour and takes you past some of<br />

Bristol’s attractions.<br />

• Access details of the pedestrian routes<br />

across the city centre, including information<br />

on pavements, parking, toilets, seating, steps,<br />

street furniture, traffic crossings, Wi-Fi, cycle<br />

paths, shared routes, public transport, taxi<br />

ranks, baby changing and accessible adult<br />

changing facilities.<br />

• Access for Bristol’s main tourist attractions.<br />

• Access to shops, restaurants, markets,<br />

museums, cinemas and a wide range of<br />

entertainment.<br />

Introduction<br />

• Access to entertainment outside of the city<br />

centre including sports venues, Bedminster’s<br />

art scene and St Mark’s Road with its<br />

continental food outlets.<br />

I would like to give my thanks to Bristol Physical<br />

Access Chain, a local group of disabled<br />

volunteers, who have advised us on access<br />

to the city and to Zeynep Sert, a student at<br />

the University of the West of England, who<br />

has compiled the information as part of our<br />

summer internship programme.<br />

Whilst our access guide is by no means an<br />

exhaustive list of facilities and services, I hope<br />

you will find it to be a valuable source of<br />

information to help make your visits to town<br />

more enjoyable.<br />

Bristol City Council is committed to enabling<br />

and improving access for all. I hope the guide<br />

is of assistance to you. If you would like to<br />

give us feedback on the guide and its contents,<br />

would like your business to be included in<br />

our next issue or would like to join the Bristol<br />

Physical Access Chain, please contact<br />

our Equalities and Community Cohesion<br />

To disabled people information is vital for<br />

choice and independent living. This guide’s<br />

goal is to provide this information.<br />

The guide is laid out by business type. Next<br />

to each address and contact details are a<br />

series of symbols. These symbols give<br />

information about the buildings’ accessibility.<br />

Some entries may have additional information,<br />

which might be helpful.<br />

The information in the guide has been<br />

researched with care. It gives a selection of<br />

premises mainly in the City Centre. It has<br />

not been possible due to space constraints<br />

to include every shop, or business in the<br />

guide. If however you know of a shop or<br />

organisation that you think should be in the<br />

guide, let us know. We will try and include it<br />

in the next edition.<br />

In the unlikely event that an entry is wrong,<br />

please let us know and it will be corrected<br />

in the next edition.<br />

The guide provides information about premise<br />

accessibility only. Inclusion in the guide is not<br />

a recommendation by the City Council. Every<br />

effort has been made to ensure the guide’s<br />

information is accurate but the Council cannot<br />

accept any liability or responsibility for errors<br />

or omissions that may have been made.<br />

Are you getting all you're entitled to?<br />

Thousands of Bristol people are still missing out on disability benefits!<br />

Disability living allowance (DLA)<br />

and attendance allowance (AA)<br />

are paid by the Department for<br />

Work and Pensions (DWP). They<br />

can be paid to people who are<br />

disabled or who have health<br />

problems. Some examples are:<br />

● people with long-term health<br />

problems<br />

● people with mental distress or<br />

illness<br />

● children who need extra care<br />

● people with physical<br />

impairments<br />

● people with learning<br />

difficulties.<br />

People under 65 (including<br />

disabled children)<br />

You may be able to claim<br />

disability living allowance (DLA)<br />

for yourself or your child.<br />

The amount you may get is<br />

between £19.55 and £125.00 a<br />

week, depending on how your<br />

health problems affect you or<br />

your child. You may be entitled<br />

to DLA if you can answer YES to<br />

ONE of these questions:<br />

■ Do you have problems<br />

looking after yourself, for<br />

example, bathing, getting in<br />

and out of bed, or dressing?<br />

■ Do you have problems seeing<br />

or hearing, and need help to<br />

communicate?<br />

■ Do you ideally need someone<br />

to make sure you’re safe?<br />

■ Do your health problems<br />

make it difficult for you to<br />

cook a main meal?<br />

■ Do you feel pain, or get tired<br />

very quickly, when you walk<br />

a short distance?<br />

■ If you can walk, do you<br />

ideally need someone with<br />

you to make sure you're safe,<br />

or show you the way?<br />

2013 changes to DLA<br />

People aged 65 and over<br />

You may be able to claim<br />

attendance allowance (AA). The<br />

amount you may get is either<br />

£49.30 or £73.60 a week,<br />

depending on how your health<br />

problems affect you. You may be<br />

entitled to AA if you can answer<br />

YES to ONE of these questions:<br />

■ Do you have problems with<br />

washing, bathing or getting<br />

dressed?<br />

■ Do you have problems seeing<br />

or hearing, and need help to<br />

communicate?<br />

■ Do you ideally need someone<br />

to make sure you are safe –<br />

maybe because of falls, giddy<br />

spells, fits or mental health<br />

problems?<br />

There are plans to gradually replace DLA with PIP (Personal<br />

Independence Payment) from 2013. At the time of writing the<br />

proposals are still going through Parliament. Despite similarities<br />

to DLA, it seems the test for PIP will be more strict. If you think<br />

you might qualify for DLA, it’s a good idea to claim now.


If you would like to claim DLA or AA<br />

Fill in this form and send it to us at the FREEPOST address at the bottom of this page –<br />

you don't need a stamp..<br />

I would like to make a new claim for disability living allowance or<br />
