Testimonials

“I have known Brian in a professional capacity for almost two years, both in my role as Chair of our local Access Panel and as a member of the National Access Survey Team. Our Access Panel and our local community have benefitted significantly from Brian’s training sessions on access auditing. I have also recommended Brian to businesses in Lochaber, and I have received positive feedback on his access audit work. Brian is undoubtedly leading the way in access survey work, to find solutions to accessibility barriers, and to help create a physical environment which promotes equality of opportunity for disabled people in Scotland. I am entirely happy to recommend Brian for any disability access project.”
