Spain for All: Improving accessibility within the travel sector, was launched at WTM London by the campaign’s ambassador, TV presenter and wheelchair basketball player Ade Adepitan. "What Spain is doing is a blueprint; the world will be watching,” he said. “If it’s successful it will transform the industry all over the world.”
He told WTM London the 1992 Paralympics in Barcelona had been “a catalyst” for disabled access in the city. “There are definitely things we can learn from what has been done in Spain,” he said, citing by way of example the city’s Metro, which was 96% accessible for disabled people.
