Abstract

The present invention relates to a writing table. People with disabilities, particularly those confined to a wheelchair, often have to visit places, such as Post Offices or banks, where they are called upon to sign documents. However, being confined to a wheelchair, they are unable to reach the counter provided, which is at too high a level. Additionally, such facilities often place the cashier behind a glass screen. Users of wheelchairs often have difficulty in hearing what the cashier has to say. The present invention lies in the appreciation of these difficulties and the provision of a solution which does not inconvenience other users of the facility, but enables compliance with obligations under the Disability Discrimination Act 1995. In its broadest sense, the present invention provides a writing table having a writing surface mounted for pivotal and slidable or telescopic movement upon a bracket adapted for securing, in use, to a wall or other appropriate surface. <IMAGE>
