What do the logos mean?

If you have particular mobility, visual, hearing or disabled needs, look out for our National Accessible Scheme. You can be confident of finding accommodation that meets your needs by looking for the following logos.

  • Mobility impaired and older people

There are 4 logos for mobility access, plus 1 exceptional accolade - Access Exceptional.

There are also 2 logos each for visual and mobility impairment, with Level 1 being the minimum entry requirement.
