A wheelchair user said pharmacy chain Boots “should know better” after erecting a sign labelling parking spaces for “less abled” customers. The nationwide company has been forced to issue an apology – and hastily change the sign – following a public backlash on social media. The signage, beneath the symbol of a person in a wheelchair, was installed in the car park of the store at Riverside in Norwich.
