The Autism Awareness Campaign UK will be rewarding Sri Lanka’s tourism industry for their care and concern for people with disabilities visiting the island by presenting the first ever South Asia Awards at this year’s World Travel Market in 2003 the European Year for People with Disabilities.
‘The spending power of people with Disabilities in Great Britain amounts to £50 Billion pounds. This is a sum that cannot be laughed at or ignored. People with Disabilities do go on holiday and Sri Lanka is one of their popular destinations.’ Said Ivan Corea, Chair of the Autism Awareness Campaign UK.
Last year Ivan and Charika Corea initiated 2002 as Autism Awareness Year in the UK it is now the largest ever movement for autism in the UK with 800 organisations on board as partners. Prime Minister Tony Blair supports their campaign. There are 520,000 autistic people in the UK – 90,000 are children. In Sri Lanka there are 38,000 autistic people. Numbers are set to increase in 5 years time.
Sri Lanka recently passed new Disability Laws and the country’s tourism industry have had to make changes in policy and thinking. Companies are legally obliged to be mindful of the Disabilities Discrimination Act in the UK if they are doing business in the UK and with the UK.
