Last spring, Hebden Bridge Disability Access Forum (HBDAF) updated its Step-free Map of Hebden Bridge, showing safe routes for people with mobility or visual impairments, and its access guide showing places with step-free access, accessible toilets and hearing loops.
With the festive period under-way, HBDAF now welcomes some new additions to its Step Free Access Guide (pdf download)
