AN information pack has been launched in Middlesbrough to help people with disabilities get around.

The Break Free pack, produced by Middlesbrough Borough Council, describes five sites in the town, including Newham Grange Leisure Farm, Pallister Park, Middlebeck Millennium Green, Hemlington Lake and Stewart Park.

Visitors will be able to make an informed decision before visits and know how much of the site is accessible to them.

The site is described so that the user will know where there are steps or steep gradients, the type of paths or anything that could cause a potential problem to someone in a wheelchair or pushing a pushchair.

There is also information about car parking, toilets, refreshments and opening times.

The packs are available from Stockton Shopmobility or from Middlesbrough council for £1. For more information, or to order a copy, contact Anne Gladwin on (01642) 515611.
