Business 2 Business Services.
Since 2004, The Disabled Rights Commission (DRC) has launched a campaign to highlight what service providers (including shops, restaurants, clubs gyms, hotels & guest houses, swimming pools, hospitals and other businesses) need to do to make their services accessible to the disabled. The Disabled Rights Commission (DRC) states that, in terms of a business: “ You need to be ready for these changes and ensure that not only do you meet your legal duties but also that you don’t ignore those disabled people who are potential customers.”
Gravelles aims to help business & service providers regardless of size, field or budget comply with the Disability Discrimination Act and make the necessary “reasonable adjustments” required under the new 2004 legislation. This we achieve by providing solutions to a wide range of access and egress issues that effect people with disabilities, whether as an employee or customer.
Gravelles offers a bespoke service. All of our advisors are uniquely qualified, being disabled themselves, and therefore have an intimate understanding of the issues affecting both the business community, disability and the built environment. We advise sensitively, taking into consideration budgets, building type/age, overall environment and external factors.
Gravelles can offer a wide range of services and has developed partnerships with a number of UK manufacturers who specialise in disability access & evacuation products, therefore providing a single source for service providers who require a range of products and services in order to effect the reasonable adjustments required in accordance with the DDA.
Our disability access product range is extensive; from evacuation equipment to handrails and induction loops Gravelles Mobility & Lifestyle is the one stop shop for all your needs. We can provide bespoke access solutions for businesses and companies with multiple units/locations, formulating an overall access protocol strategy, providing cost effective solutions to suit all budgets and premises regardless of type or age.
