Students at a college in Alton set up a business auditing firms' facilities for accessibility.

A business that determines how accessible facilities are for people with disabilities has been set up by college students.

Southampton Airport and the Watercress Line's Ropley railway station are among the locations they have already audited. Their initial invitation to the Watercress Line came so the students could provide feedback on early plans for a fully accessible train carriage. Marked out on the floor with tape, students could move across the plans in their wheelchairs and position themselves in-situ.
