the meeting went well we have set up a disabled supporters club anyone who wants to join or get more info please contact me also if anyone knows a disabled supporter please let them know about this the club are being very helpful the disabled supporters club is for every type of disability not just wheelchair users

meeting wednesday in the centenary suite 7pm all disabled fans welcome

1. Previously, the club have catered for disabled fans (in a genuine attempt to be accommodating), and their carers, without any real restrictions both in terms of costs and numbers. 2 + 3. We have changed procedures in order to understand more clearly the demands in place for access to the ground. Currently we have over 80 supporters who access the ground on match days via disabled season tickets. There are also an addition 80 carers that accompany these fans. In conjunction with Capability Scotland, and whilst during a comprehensive audit of our facilities, it became abundantly clear that the areas to which the disabled fans were allocated were unsuitable for that number. Furthermore, there are no records of how many disabled supporters actually attend home matches and where they eventually sit whilst in the ground (some disabled fans enter via the wheelchair section and then move freely into the O'Donnell Stand for example). In this era of stadium security and all things relating to supporter health and safety, that is a situation that the club cannot allow to continue. Essentially, what we propose to do is to monitor usage and allocate space more appropriately in line with what our facility at Fir Park can safely cater for. In doing so we can talk to the supporters who regularly attend and, thereafter, understand their own needs more. It will actually be of benefit to our disabled fans in the longer term; our hope it to provide more suitable amenities and to further enhance their experience. The club will continue to allow access to the ground, free of charge, for both supporters and carers on match day – something that many, many clubs no longer do. There is no hidden agenda, simply put, if there was an incident in the stadium then the club has a duty of care to be able to evacuate and make safe the stadium and we cannot do that if I do not know where disabled supporters are, how many are in the ground and their physical needs. We have to reduce the amount we offer because, quite simply, our ageing facility can't safely offer/host more
