@everyoneisdumb Do you have a video showing how you've mounted a GoPro on a Permobil? I'm trying to figure out the best way to mount one on my F5. I did some searches over on your youtube channel but wasn't able to find anything about mounting on a chair.

It's years now and this problem continues. Google maps recommends a wheelchair accessible route with Oxford Circus station and Euston station, neither of which are wheelchair accessible @GoogleMaps teapawt.net/HH23tt/status/15923279…

Why does Google Maps think Oxford Circus is wheelchair accessible? (it's not) I've tried to send feedback to them but they never updated it. Does anyone know how to tell them? There are so many problems with their "Wheelchair accessible" routes in London. @googlemaps

@everyoneisdumb Do you happen to know where the microswitches are for a C500 standing chair for the standing actuator? I can drive the C500 if it's standing up, but on the way down ICS lights turn red and it won't drive any more. Someone suggested a bad microswitch…

Unplugging one of the standing actuator plugs with a blue white and red cable allows it to drive, but of course it won't stand again.

Google maps seems to think that Finchley Road station is wheelchair accessible. It can only be used for same direction changing, there is no accessible exit. @googlemaps Can you please update the map to avoid impossible directions? maps.app.goo.gl/raB6baCE9K4i…
Google maps directions with "Wheelchair accessible" option checked. shows a route from Finsbury Park station to Swiss Cottage, includes going from King's Cross to Finchley Road then taking a bus.

⚠️ Liverpool Street station - No step free access between the N/R concourse and the eastbound Circle, Hamm & City and Metropolitan lines due to a faulty lift. Use the Elizabeth line entrance on Broadgate for step free access. ➡ To re-plan journey: tfl.gov.uk/plan-a-journey

@Tate Modern, I visited last week. Someone gave me a membership so I have a member card. I use a wheelchair & require a companion. I tried to go into a paid exhibition. Staff refused to let me go in with my companion. She said I would need another ticket for my companion. 1/2

Your website says "Members and Supporters enjoy free exhibition entry – no need to book, just turn up with your card" and "Visitors with a disability pay a concessionary rate, and entrance for companions is free". I gave up and went to a free part of the museum. 2/2

There is a list of @TfL out of station interchanges here. tfl.gov.uk/corporate/publica… Does anyone know why Bethnal Green to Whitechapel is not a valid out of station interchange? They are closer together than some others and it can avoid Liverpool Street station.

I was travelling from Forest Hill to Whitechapel on the London Overground, requested a ramp to access the train. The train arrived and I might have been able to get on but was told that the ramp would not be provided until staff had called ahead even though Whitechapel is level.

So it only takes 10 days to find out I was unnecessarily delayed due to a member of staff not knowing/understanding the policy. I'm sure it won't happen in the future! I'll just keep this thread of messages with me at all times to show to staff.
