Wheelchair Nightmare at Liverpool Christmas Market

Liverpool's popular Christmas market has faced criticism from a disability influencer who deemed it a "nightmare" for wheelchair users. Lisa McCann highlighted the significant challenges posed by the uneven cobblestone surfaces on St George's Plateau and William Brown Street, stating that the constant shaking caused her pain. She noted that the market's smooth pavement access points were only reachable by traversing these difficult stones.

McCann, who visited the market for work reasons, emphasized that the experience was unpleasant not only for wheelchair users but also for those with unsteady footing. She typically avoids such events but felt compelled to attend this time. Her experience was documented and shared on TikTok, bringing wider attention to the accessibility issues.
