West Midlands disabled supporters clubs put aside their rivalries to join forces and discuss accessibility across their club’s facilities and stadiums.
‘Allies in Access’ met at The Hawthorns for the first time, sharing knowledge and ideas, as well as being shown around the stadium’s sensory room and accessible areas.
Joining Albion’s Disabled Supporters Club for the day were representatives from Aston Villa, Birmingham City, Wolves and Wrexham as well as Level Playing Field, the national organisation representing disabled people in sport.
The gathering were also shown a presentation by The Albion Foundation about the scale of the work that the charity does in the community for children and adults with disabilities.
