c2c invites customers to join Accessibility Panel

South Essex train operator Trenitalia c2c is inviting local people who have lived experience of disability to create a more accessible rail network and have a say in how future policy is shaped.

c2c’s Accessibility Panel meets four times a year and will be made up of people with both visible and non-visible disabilities. The scope of the panel is to provide consultation on business policy and applicants must share a passion for accessible transport.

Accessibility & Integrated Travel Manager Steve Scutt said:

“I look forward to recruiting new panel members and working with them to improve rail journeys for our disabled and older customers.

“Their recommendations will help us to continue to enhance accessibility on our trains and at our stations. We’re committed to making our services inclusive and accessible for all customers.”

Membership is by application and members will receive vouchers for taking part in the panel. Applications are encouraged from people who live and travel on rail services in the South Essex and East London area.

If you have lived experience of disability and want to work with train operators to make rail travel more accessible, please email: accessibility@c2crail.net.
