We have exciting news to report today! Through the combined efforts of local charity, Ability Onsite, and Dr Watson’s GP clinic, wheelchair access is now available at the rear door of the clinic. This is a massive improvement on the previous inaccessible entrance and will allow people living with disabilities far greater ease with accessing medical care.
The wheelchair-accessible door was installed after a few weeks of preparation, during which both Ability Onsite and Dr Watson’s GP clinic actively raised funds for the endeavour. Locals were surveyed in order to determine how best to approach this project and solicit an adequate level of support – an effort that appears to have payed off, judging by today’s results.
This initiative speaks to other small towns around Northern Ireland taking similar action in making life easier for those with disabilities. Ballymena rightfully continues to showcase itself as a diverse and progressive community, setting an example for others to follow. Hopefully as time progresses, we can see such actions become more commonplace throughout all areas in NI.
