Hi
@DublinAirport
👋🏻 I travelled home from
@HeathrowAirport
today. When coming through immigration, we realised there is no lower level desks that are suitable for a wheelchair user like me. Would it be possible to make one? I think it would really be good. See you soon ✈️
Hi guys. You might remember a few months ago I asked
@atLiffeyValley
to fix the dishing of the kerb at accessible parking and sadly it’s not been done and made safe. Can you support me and others to get this done. Playing 🐥 with 🚗 is not fun
Thank you so so much

Right everyone,will we try again?I need your help to make it happen So today we visited
@atLiffeyValley

So sorry if I can’t reply to everyone tweets but thanks so so so much to everybody for the support and I hope I can help people with accessibility on public transport and hope I can meet some people along the way thanks so much everyone again 🚌🚝🧑🦼

Today was the best day, the bus driver allowed myself and
@erinfeagan102

Hi
@DublinAirport
. I travelled through airport yesterday & had an 💡. Have you heard of
@FindingCharlie
. They make communication boards for public use. I think this could be great to see around the airport to support people with communication challenges. You might look into it
Hi Charlie. My name is James. I heard you’re not feeling so great so I just wanted to extend my hand of friendship. We are all behind you and you inspire me❤️

Hi
@DublinAirport
. It is really positive you have a priority access point for wheelchair users for taxis but a challenge I had was there was no dishing off the kerb so I had to bring my 🦼onto the road and navigate moving traffic to get to taxi. Could this be fixed?
Today was a good day. I’ve been doing my work experience for LCA with
@dublinbusnews
and today
@CEO_DublinBus
came along with us. 🚌 I’ve been working with travel assist to help teach anyone who needs it to travel independently 🚌
