Current focus - Accomodation Accessibility Appraisal

Alexia is currently focusing on providing a mainstream solution for accommodation providers to enable them to display on their website, a standard set of information on the accessibility of their premises for guests with disabilities. This Appraisal is already in use by several accommodation providers in New Zealand; however it is a long way from being standard information provided for disabled travellers.
