DP has a terminal degenerative neurological disease and will soon need a wheelchair. We don’t have a driveway, just a path from the door to a pavement that goes across the front of the house (hedges/fences along the side of the pavement). The pavement is quite narrow so I don’t think turning and going along the path to the next dropped curve (3 doors down) will be feasible (he has already tried this in a borrowed mini mobility scooter - it was right on the edge of the pavement and the turn was tricky).
Can you get dropped kerbs for wheelchair access only? Everything I can find suggests wide car sized lengths. I also can’t find anything about disability and dropped kerbs - AI suggests that if your Occ therapist confirms your disability there is a route through some of the paperwork , but everything on our local council pages is about wanting a dropped kerb for a driveway (and of course there is no phone number to ring).
any advice or experience appreciated
