LIFESTYLE'S CEO IGNORES THE PLIGHT OF THE DISABLED

About 1 month ago i visited this garden centre and as both my partner and I are registered disabled we drove to park in a disabled bay. All the bays were taken but fortunately a standard bay close by became vacant. Although this did not involve any great distance to walk it did mean that we could not open the car doors fully which my partner needs in order to exit the car easily. Of the 7 or 8 specially assigned disabled parking spaces only 3 of the cars displayed the appropriate sticker. I mentioned this to a lady at the info counter who gave me the cell number of the CEO and suggested I called her as she took no notice when staff had reported this to her before. I called this lady who was totally disinterested and claimed that these people probably were disabled but did not like to display a sticker. Today I returned to the centre to find a motorcycle parked in the disabled bay closest to the entrance. Two hours later it was still there and all the bays were now occupied. I spoke to a car guard to said it belonged to a member of staff who shouted at him if he told him not to park there. Lifestyle are quite happy to take money from their many disabled customers but refuse to monitor the use of these bays by selfish able-bodied customer. SHAME ON THEM
