  • When coming up with our fire evacuation plans, we all hope that we will never really need to use them to escape a serious emergency. For persons who are able-bodied, an evacuation is usually just a calm walk down the stairs and a short wait in the car park, but for persons of reduced mobility, things are not always as simple.

    Disabled people, especially those with more advanced needs, are at an increased risk of being injured or have an existing condition aggravated if the evacuation is not suitable and well-practiced. There are a few pointers that we see a lot of our customers feeding back on, recalling that they feel in pain, unsafe or undignified and at Evaccess we feel that we have a duty of care to pass this feedback onto the people who may be building PEEPs that may be unaware of some of these factors to consider.
