Euan’s Guide, a charity website used by disabled people to review, share and discover accessible places to visit, has launched an accessibility guide to Fife.
The guide to one of Scotland’s most popular regions features a range of accessible locations, from the home of golf, St Andrews, to Fife’s famous sandy beaches and its picturesque fishing villages.
The Fife guide, the third in an Accessible Highlights series, is free and downloadable from www.euansguide.com/fife-guide/.
It is being promoted with a series of digital postcards showing just how accessible the region is for disabled visitors.
The digital postcards feature snapshots of Euan’s Guide Ambassadors stopping off at three of Fife’s most iconic locations: the stunning coastal village of St Monans, which dates back to the 14th century; St Andrews, home to golf and famous for West Sands Beach which featured in the film Chariots of Fire; and Kingsbarns Distillery, a former farm steading turned malt whisky distillery.
The public is being encouraged to download the guide and, after visiting the guide’s locations, to share their own
Postcard from Fife to demonstrate just how accessible the region is, with the hashtag #PostcardsFromFife.
Part-funded by VisitScotland Growth Fund, the Fife Accessible Highlights guide is the latest in a series of three printed guides from the charity.
The others uncover surprisingly accessible Scottish Castles & Battlefields and Scotland’s trending city, Dundee.
While the website has been Euan’s Guide’s main information source for disabled people looking for accessible places to go, printed guides offer a more geographically focused option for visitors.
Euan is hoping the Fife guide will inspire disabled people and their families and friends to explore a region which is not only accessible to disabled visitors but also geographically accessible for people in Scotland, the north of England and beyond.
