Lovely small farm, however unfortunately not very welcoming for wheelchair users with severe disabilities.
River Bourne Community Farm的点评
点评：I work in a day centre for people with severe disabilities and we often like to have a day out at the farm. It's a lovely little farm with a few animals, relatively wheelchair friendly if it's not too muddy.
However, when we visited recently we were made to feel very unwelcome by the cafe staff and were asked to leave! We were a group of 3 individuals in wheelchairs and 3 carers.
At 11:30 we needed to stop for lunch, and managed to fit the 6 of us around one table outside the cafe. There were at least 4 or 5 empty tables, and only around 3 tables occupied by other visitors for the entire time we were there, however after us being there long enough to take out and prep the food for our individuals (all of whom have complex dietary requirements), and beginning to feed lunch, we were approached by a member of staff and told that our individuals (who are all severely disabled) couldn't eat there as their food wasn't bought from the cafe.
We explained that the 3 carers were intending to buy lunch from the cafe shortly and that the cafe wouldn't be able to cater to the dietary requirements of the individuals we were with. We have eaten lunch there before with no issue, but we were told we had to leave. Surely this is discrimination as disabled people aren't always able to eat the food provided by the cafe, and there was no alternative benches or seating available other than outside the cafe.
There was even a sign saying that no food could be eaten there unless purchased at the cafe, unless it was for a baby - apparently the same consideration isn't taken for people with disabilities who have very specific dietary requirements! I think it's safe to say we won't be returning, which is a massive shame as we would love to have more disability-friendly options locally.

翻译：我在一家为重度残疾人士开设的日间中心工作，我们经常喜欢在农场度过一天。这是一个可爱的小农场，里面养着几只动物，如果不是太泥泞的话，轮椅相对比较方便。
然而，最近我们去的时候，咖啡馆的工作人员让我们感觉很不受欢迎，并要求我们离开！我们一共 3 名坐轮椅的人和 3 名护理人员。
11:30 时我们需要停下来吃午饭，我们 6 个人设法挤在咖啡馆外的一张桌子旁。我们在那里的整个时间里，至少有 4 或 5 张空桌子，只有大约 3 张桌子被其他游客占用，然而，在我们在那里待了足够长的时间，为我们的人（他们都有复杂的饮食要求）取出并准备食物，并开始喂午餐后，一名工作人员走近我们，告诉我们，我们的人（他们都是重度残疾人）不能在那里吃饭，因为他们的食物不是从咖啡馆购买的。
我们解释说，这 3 名护理人员打算很快从咖啡馆购买午餐，而咖啡馆无法满足我们同行人员的饮食要求。我们以前在那里吃过午餐，没有任何问题，但我们被告知必须离开。这肯定是歧视，因为残疾人并不总是能够吃咖啡馆提供的食物，而且除了咖啡馆外面，没有其他长椅或座位。
甚至有一个标志说，除非是在咖啡馆购买，否则不能在那里吃任何食物，除非是给婴儿的——显然，对于有非常特殊饮食要求的残疾人，并没有同样的考虑！我想可以肯定地说我们不会再来了，这是一个巨大的遗憾，因为我们希望当地有更多适合残疾人士的选择。
