The Equality Act 2010 requires that service providers must think ahead and make reasonable adjustments to address barriers that impede disabled people. These requirements are as follows: Where a provision, criterion or practice puts disabled people at a substantial disadvantage to take reasonable steps to avoid that disadvantage; Where a physical feature puts disabled people at a substantial disadvantage to avoid that disadvantage or adopt a reasonable alternative method of providing the service or exercising the function; Where not providing an auxiliary aid puts disabled people at a substantial disadvantage to provide that auxiliary aid. In doing this, it is a good idea to consider the range of disabilities that your actual or potential service users might have. You should not wait until a disabled person experiences difficulties using a service, as this may make it too late to make the necessary adjustment.
