‘I don't know what you're trying to establish’: The Housing and Urban ‘Problems’ of Visually Impaired Children
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 05 January 2004
Abstract
This paper uses the social model of disability to examine visually impaired children's experiences of their housing and neighbourhoods and finds that they did not experience any significant problems with the design of them. The source of their problems was within these environments, and was caused by factors such as the intensity of movement, for example, from flows of traffic. We conclude by discussing the social policy implications of these findings.
