Thérèse, 42, celebrates the festival for her availability

Therese Carlsson, 42, of Gothenburg, lives with Ehlers-Danlos syndrome connective tissue disease that affects both the leader and the body. Because of the illness, she is in a wheelchair.

On weekends, she visited the "We love the 90s" party at Banana Pier, and told her that she had never received such a good deal.

A few weeks before the festival, she contacted the organizers on Facebook

what I needed to work for me to visit the festival. They reacted quickly, gave advice and sent maps of the area with instructions for what I needed.

– As a function, I always have the habit of looking for everything myself. But these organizers have never given me the impression of being an inconvenience, she continues.

"I felt good" Therese was again pleasantly surprised by the festival area.

– The heating was perfectly built and everything was planned and thought down to the smallest detail.

– They made me feel that I was worth as much as any other visitor, says Therese, pointing out that it is far from always being.

The desire for increased availability

According to Thérèse, she has several times I have encountered disabled toilets that are located a few steps away and construction sites that can only be crossed if you are in a wheelchair.

– I think that accessibility should be better in more places. I want to talk to you about my disability and my experiences, and hope that more people will be inspired by making it more suitable for us with a disability, "she says.
