Once again, a thoroughly reasonable and measured approach to inclusion for those with both physical and mental/learning disabilities is twisted by the torygraph to enable literal hatespeech from it’s readers.
And it’s a little worrying that so many people, even here, haven’t actually read the article or other press about this before getting their pitchforks out.
The Torygraph reporting on something adjacent to mental health issues?
I bet that’s going to not make me hate humanity by reading it…!
As ever, don’t read the comments in the article. Wow pure toxic
I’m not seeing any comments on the article, but I can imagine what they’re like.
They’re behind a “click here to read the comments” link underneath the main text.
Yes they are truly inhumane 😔.
So Merlin Entertainment basically thinks it knows better than doctors, some disabilities aren’t real and it’s fine to make people with severe anxiety stand in line until they suffer an attack. Lovely(!) Somewhere mistreating people with mental health issues is not a place I’ll go for fun.
Genuine question? Where would you go?
The thing with Alton is the sheer amount of people, it’s loud, it’s hyper. I know they have the gardens, but they are still buried in the middle.
So where can you visit? that gives you fun but without an over exaggerated atmosphere that comes with it.
I personally like aquariums and gardens.
Gulliver’s Land in Milton Keynes is a slightly more chill theme park
Merlin run lots of stuff, including Sealife and Warwick Castle. I’ll avoid the lot.
