Council Spends £5000 On Signs In Braille ... For Non-Existent Blind Squash Players
'Council chiefs spent more than £5,000 on Braille signs to advise squash players which sports shoes were acceptable and about safety on court. One player at Halesowen Leisure Centre in the West Midlands said: 'While blind people participate in all kinds of sport, including football, they don't play squash. 'So I can't understand why the signs in the squash court area are in Braille.' The Royal National Institute of Blind People said: 'Blind and visually-impaired people are able to play many sports but not squash.'
