Disabled Ramblers

Disabled Ramblers is a group of like-minded disabled people who enjoy being in the countryside and who get about using paths and trails of all kinds. They are true 'ramblers' although very few of them can walk more than a few yards. The membership consists mainly of mobility disabled people who get about through the use of a variety of mobility aids, ranging from electrically powered pavement buggies, scooters, powerchairs and in some cases, manually powered wheelchairs.

Disabled Ramblers organises and runs a programme of disabled rambles each year. These take place all over England and Wales and vary in difficulty from easy to challenging. They also campaign for better access to the countryside by encouraging those responsible to remove inaccessible man made barriers, and, if appropriate, to address the surface quality of paths. Their policy is to seek access while fully preserving the character of the countryside.
