Asda
- Customers with mobility impairments can be provided with motorised scooters
- Customer service desks and pharmacy counters are built at a lower level, suitable for wheelchair users or people of restricted growth
- Customers with mobility impairments can be provided with hand-held levers with which to obtain items from shelves
- Visually impaired customers who use Braille can ask for items to be labelled in Braille so that they can read them. This can be done at the service desk.
- Many checkouts have loops for those who are able to use them.
- All staff at Asda stores are trained to be disability aware, using computer based learning. All must reach at least 80 per cent to pass, or must retake.
- All Asda checkouts are wide-aisled for ease of access - also meaning wheelchair users do not have to queue for longer at special checkouts.
