About The Disability Discrimination Act

IMG: Disaled boy using a PCThe 1995 Disability Discrimination Act (DDA) aims to protect disabled people against discrimination.

Part iii consists of the implementation of three phases which – from 2004 – are now legal requirements. They relate to access to goods, services and facilities.

A disabled person who feels a service-provider has failed to address their needs for access to goods, services or facilities may make take legal action against the company.

 

 

IMG: Sign language. Ignorance is no defence in law. 

In most cases, where service-providers have not complied with the law, discrimination is rarely meant but stems from a lack of understanding and subsequent failure to effect change. A Court of Law may not be so understanding.

Ignore the DDA and you:

•  ignore over 10 million people  
•  ignore an annual spending power of over £40-50 billion
•  turn away family members and friends of these millions of people
•  ignore company reputation
•  sweep away potential profit and a huge niche in the market
