Synopsis

Accessibility isn’t just about expensive technical solutions and practical fixes, writes Magnus Berglund, Accessibility Director at the Scandic Hotels Group. “It’s about providing excellent service and showing we care.” He believes that for hotel companies, making spaces accessible should be seen as the source of a whole new range of clients rather than a financial burden.
