Snowball - The Accessibility Rating Scheme
GITA has teamed up with Snowball to offer members a robust, value-for-money, way of obtaining a nationally recognised accessibility rating scheme.
Snowball Community, known simply as Snowball, is the world’s largest and most widely used disability accessibility app, transforming how people with disabilities find and share inclusive spaces.
This innovative platform allows users to rate and review businesses and services based on their disability-friendliness, covering everything from restaurants, tourist attractions, and supermarkets to coffee shops and more. Users can instantly search for accessible venues anywhere in the world, add new locations not yet listed, and leave detailed reviews contributing to a database that already includes tens of thousands of entries, from Changing Places facilities to accessible toilets.
A standout feature of Snowball is its integration with Google Maps, making it simple to navigate directly to chosen destinations. Both disabled travellers and locals enrich the app by adding and reviewing venues that welcome individuals with physical disabilities, learning disabilities, sensory needs, and neurodivergent conditions.
Powered by community input, Snowball grows just like its name suggests, through a snowball effect, making it an unmatched resource in the global accessibility market.
