WHEELCHAIR users and their carers can set their sights on a free view of the capital city from the London Eye next month.

A free roadshow will take place on May 11-12 between 10am and 4pm to offer disabled people a chance to ride the London Eye or take a sightseeing cruise on the Thames.

The roadshow will coincide with The Hardest Hit march, where thousands are expected to protest against cuts to disability benefits, on May 11.

Janet Seward, sales and marketing director of roadshow sponsor Gowrings Mobility, said: “The aim of the programme is to show people what they can do and take the attitude that you really can go where you want to go.”

If you wish to visit the London Eye or London Eye Cruise, please call Gowrings Mobility before May 4 on 0845 608 8020.
