My parents are in Galway for the weekend, mum is in a wheelchair and has very limited mobility in general and they are finding it hard to find things to do there. I would be greatful for any suggestions. My dad is finding the streets in the centre very akward for mums wheelchair.

you can try checking each of the sites individually (they normally say on their sites/ or ringing them) http://www.irelandwest.ie/content.asp?id=448

athenry castle http://www.galwaytourist.com/details/athenry_castle.shtml and http://www.galwaytourist.com/ to check other places

also try this cord and ask for a list of accessible places in Galway.

Access Department
The National Rehabilitation Board,
25 Clyde Road,
Dublin 4
Ireland

also just to let everyone know im completely bogged down with work at the mo (am in 3rd year/ college) and i haven't had that much time to do stuff like checking boards and write thesis/ essays/ do fieldwork placement at the same time so am taking a break from boards the next 7 weeks/ 2 months or so until this placement ends, and iv more time on my hands so my posts will be sporadic at best

hope this post helps Cathy

Snorlax,

thanks a million for the details and good luck with college - will pass the information onto dad, he was getting very stressed earlier with mum.
