ENIL aims to make the Freedom Drive accessible to all disabled people. All venues will be accessible, with additional accessible toilets, quiet rooms, as well as captioning and the International Sign Language provided during the sessions (if requested by any of the participants). The programme, once available, will also be published in plain language.

​

Unfortunately, although Brussels is one of the two EU capitals, it is not very accessible to disabled people. The cobbled streets, the lack of dropped curbs, building sites and disruptions, inaccessibility of shops, bars and restaurants make the city difficult to navigate. This is another reason why the Freedom Drive is important. One of our demands is better accessibility of Brussels.

We have compiled a number of links to help you prepare your trip to Brussels and to make your stay enjoyable. Although the Freedom Drive comes with a very packed schedule, we hope that you will have some time to be a tourist in the city.

There are many hotels with accessible rooms, though they tend to be more expensive. However, thanks to Handy Brussels, you can easily find them online. The Brussels transport network is somewhat accessible.
