Hive Beach wheelchair friendly benches replacement
Bridport, Dorset, United Kingdom
Aim
To replace the two wheelchair friendly benches that were destroyed by Storm Ciaran.
In 2015 I started a campaign to improve wheelchair access for people like my daughter to Hive Beach and other beaches in the area. By 2020 I had raised enough money to purchase 4 wheelchair friendly benches made from sustainably sourced timber, two were installed overlooking Hive Beach at Burton Bradstock (with the help of the National Trust) and two on the Esplanade at West Bay.
Unfortunately on November 2nd the two at Hive Beach were destroyed by Storm Ciaran. I know that many families have enjoyed using the benches since their installation which have a cutaway for the wheelchair allowing easy access to and from the table.
Please help me raise the money which I estimate to be around £1500 - £2000 to replace the benches.
