We acknowledge that many people require special consideration to ensure that their basic needs of mobility and information in this regard are provided for. The information on this page will be of benefit to the following groups:
• People in wheelchairs and shop riders
• People with visual and hearing impairments
• Senior Citizens: Their balance, agility, and righting reactions are not what they use to be.
• People with walking aids such as canes, rollators, walking frames etc.
The database of accessible accommodation, restaurants and tourist attractions has been compiled by an occupational therapist with assistance of people with disabilities all over South Africa.
At present the majority of the information is applicable to people with mobility impairments and we will include more information for people with other disabilities as it becomes available. For information on wheelchair access and other related topics relating to the 2010 World Cup and the stadiums, please visit the FIFA website.
You are also most welcome to send us recommendations to add to the database or feedback to improve our service.
