Birmingham City Disabled Supporters Club, has been
set up to help all the disabled members to get the best possible
enjoyment from the game. We regularly meet with BCFC, to voice any
concerns we or they may have. We help with away travel, I usually
get the ticket, cost and parking information, to make it as easy
as possible for any disabled fans wanting to travel away.
As well as dealing with wheelchair members, we have recently admitted
ambulant and blind members, and do all we can to help them, and
all members with parking etc. at St.Andrews. Blues are especially
good at listening to our concerns and ideas, they are eager to help
whenever they can.
IT'S A TEAM EFFORT, TO GET INVOLVED

OFFICIAL LAUNCH OF THE NEW BCDSC ADAPTED
MINIBUS
After all the members hard work, to raise funds including,
wheelchair push, bucket collections, players forum and party nights,
today saw the realisation of an idea born years before, when the
supporters club was just beginning, now with over 100 members and
new ones joining all the time, we are becoming a well supported
organisation. The minibus will be used initially to take fans to
away games, once it is up and running, we hope later to take disabled
people from other places in the community, homes, hospices etc.
out for a day trip. We would like to take this opportunity to thank
all those that helped and/or donated enabling us to finally get
our minibus, thanks to you all.

The mini bus in all it's glory.
