Abstract

The access-making mobilities of disabled parents and/or parents of a disabled child(ren) are underexplored in the existing literature. This pilot study sought to address this, by taking on board Clement and Waitt’s (2018) call to consider how the ‘right to the city’ is felt for a range of bodies, in our case parents who are disabled and/or parents of a disabled child(ren).
