A NEW campaign has been launched aimed at inspiring the county’s residents, local businesses and organisations to change their behaviour, and inspire them to take action for the benefit of their local area.

As part of the Caru Ceredigion campaign, led by Ceredigion County Council, a new leaflet – called Clutter Free Ceredigion – was unveiled in Canolfan Rheidol, Aberystwyth, as part of the Ceredigion Disability Forum meeting.

The leaflet has been produced with the help of the Forum and is aimed at raising awareness of the importance of keeping Ceredigion’s streets accessible to all.

The leaflet has been created following concerns raised by members of the forum that obstacles encountered on some of the county’s streets can cause difficulties, especially for those with visual and/or physical impairments, older people and parents with pushchairs and young children.

The Clutter Free Ceredigion leaflet will be sent to local businesses and organisations to raise awareness of keeping streets accessible, and not overloading them with A-frames and promotion obstacles, with the aim of making Ceredigion accessible for everyone as much as possible.

More information is available on the Caru Ceredigion page www.ceredigion.gov.uk/caruceredigion.
