Hiya!
I’m Ellie and this channel follows me on my journey through life, navigating chronic illness and disability in a world that wasn’t designed for us. This week I went to see Charlie and the chocolate factory at my local theatre using m wheelchair! this is something I would usually avoid due to the anxiety of it but I am so proud of myself for doing it!

I am sorry to hear that it was a frustrating experience for you but I hope you got everything sorted out in the end and I hope you enjoy the theatre plan as well and also I totally understand being disabled is frustrating at times

The theatres I go to you always have to ring to book the wheelchair accessible seating tickets. I see why as the online system you're going through is even more complicated. 😬😬 It really does put you off going out. I have anxiety since becoming a wheelchair user. It does become easier. 😊 Glad you had a good time though. 😊

See I thought you had to ring too but apparently not… thank you for saying it gets easier, I appreciate it

@@SmallandStrong66 Thanks for the reply I do get anxious whenever I have to travel for work so many things could go wrong, like will I see my chair again, will it be given to someone else by mistake or will it get damaged. its one of those things only disabled people understand.

I want to say Thank goodness our Movie Theater is wheelchair accessible. Of course it is the law that businesses must be accessible to anyone who has a disability.

@SmallandStrong66 Жыл бұрын

Yes, despite it being a law there’s still many places that need to catch up!

@@SmallandStrong66 true to that!! I have been in restaurants and their bathrooms weren’t ADA accessible, which is a shame. Good time for a remodel and get with the times !
