TfL is doing some stuff for Neurodiversity Celebration Week and I just learned that they have a 'travel mentoring' service where people will help you route plan and use the maps, as well as accompanying you on practice journeys if you need. This is very cool!

Travel mentoring

Our free travel mentoring service helps people to start using public transport.

I did watch the video
When they did this video hardly any passengers in the bus
Imagine when the bus is full with passengers and the disabled space is occupied by a pram and no space to maneuver the electric wheelchair
I will email TFL to apply for the mobility aid card
I will send them the picture of my electric wheelchair they can be able to tell me if my wheelchair is suitable for the buses.

Ah that's good for my heart 🥰 thanks for sharing!

@girlonthenet
I'm wheelchair user
Unfortunately is a nightmare to be able to get on board on the buses, plus the pavements are not disabled friendly
Very rare I use the public transport
