It is utterly vis--vis that the DDA (Disability Discrimination fighting UK) does not appear to have addressed the areas of secure refuge in multi storey buildings for people gone Learning Difficulties, should it be expectable to escort a LD person to such an area and after that expect them to wait patiently until incite arrives? OK we would wish or even expect that nobody would be left on your own in such a concern but it should be recall that in an emergency, vibrancy or death matter many people think and no-one else of their own safety. A sad but legitimate fact. In fact, anecdotal evidence suggests that disabled people are often forgotten during emergency evacuation.
As a wheelchair addict I sufficiently allow that we should be accomplished to have entrance to most within your means public buildings, however as an right of entry auditor I character if we cant get out of the building safely, we should not be going in it, at least not until those liable have addressed every issues including egress.
My advice to every people once entering a building, is: think about how you (Or the person past you) will get out in an emergency as well as how you will get in.
