An organisation that has improved its headquarters to make life easier for disabled people in Bath has won an award.
The Bath Salvation Army Citadel was given the latest Mayor of Bath's Access Challenge Award for the work that has been carried out to make the building at James Street West wheelchair-friendly.
In particular doors have been widened, and there is better access to meeting rooms and the coffee shop for people who use wheelchairs or scooters after a major facelift.
Access B&NES secretary Jenny Shrubsall, who uses a wheelchair herself, said: "The lady who nominated the Salvation Army uses a scooter, and was impressed with how easy it was to access all parts of the building.
"She said that a meeting she was attending had been moved to the meeting room at the headquarters as the access was better."
The idea is to recognise buildings, employers and facilities across the area where work has been done to make life easier for those with disabilities.
Previous winning projects have included the new lift at Bath Spa railway station, the installation of automatic doors at the Victoria Art Gallery and St Stephen's Church, in Lansdown.
Access B&NES chair Susan Charles said it was important for people to understand the many obstacles that people with disabilities had to overcome.
She said: "Many people with disabilities who are able to get back into the workplace can often find themselves hampered by lack of access, whether it's getting to and from a workplace, in and out of buildings, using public transport etc."
