What it’s like to use a wheelchair for the first time: a special tour of the Superhumans Center. Video

Two dozen representatives of the authorities and businesses of Lviv Oblast became participants

The day before, on August 9, business owners and representatives of the authorities in the Lviv region tried to move around in wheelchairs. Such an experiment was organized for the first time within the walls of the Superhumans Center.

About two dozen government and business representatives visited the clinic: hoteliers, representatives of shopping centers, pharmacies, gas stations. A special tour in wheelchairs was organized for them. All in order for them to experience for themselves what barriers people with disabilities face.

“Disability is not a sentence. I want every person in our country to do what they love, love their family, raise children, realize themselves as they like, and be happy that they live in Ukraine. Without barriers and discrimination. Thank you Superhumans Center for focusing attention on what really matters and needs our understanding and action now,” said the head of Lviv OVA, Maksym Kozytskyi.

Such an experiment was organized for the first time, but the Superhumans Center is not going to stop there, because the most important thing now is to build a completely barrier-free society in Ukraine.
