What's the site all about?
When the site is complete in April *its a directory of disability groups, (charities &voluntary organisations),  services and companies that offer  advice, support, services or equipment particularly suited to disabled people.

The directory covers the whole of the UK and is designed to be as inclusive of as many disabilities and areas of interest as possible.

Along with the directory are included some basic fact sheets about disability, a news page and a Can You Help? section where groups may ask for assistance from other members of the site and visitors. Where if you are brave enough, you may offer your time or expertise for the benefit of others.

Uhad2bthere is not trying to compete with other already valuable websites, merely bring them together to make them easier to find for those people who need them most.

For more please see the About page

*Until the launch in April, we are using the site while it is still under construction, to give an idea to potential members about what to expect from the site.  Like any building site it looks a bit messy right now, but come April the cleaners would of been in and all the fixtures and fitting will be gleaming! and the plumbing will work to.

If you are part of a charity or company that has its focus on disability why not register your interest? then you could be part of the directory in time for the launch.

Again, For more please see the About page

Update 4 April 2008...

The directory is now online  ... but this site still needs a bit of spit and polish!  If you find something that is not yet working as you think it should, please contact us And thank you for your patience.

I want to be included in the directory, but I really hate computers!
If you, or your group, charity or organisation would like to be included in the directory, but you just can't cope with the idea of using your computer to fill in the online forms and make a submission to the directory,  you can still be included!

Just write to me, my address can be found on the contact page.  If you have one, please include a leaflet about your organisation, and just give as much information about what it does and who it does it for and I will then complete the forms on your behalf.

Once your listing is ready, If you wish, I can send a printed copy of your listing by post or email for your approval and from time to time will contact you to confirm that your details are still correct.

If you want to know more please contact me or write me a letter!

Can You Help?
The Can You Help? Page gives an opportunity for disability charities and groups to appeal for help.  This help Can take the form of pretty much anything from Funding ideas and sources to  requests for equipment donations.

There are one or two common sense guidelines to bear in mind, both for the groups requesting help and those who could potentially give it.

Please don't ask for a holiday in Benedorm or a Speedboat, you're not likely to get that sort of thing! And that kind of request is not going to get on the site anyway.

If you are in a position to offer help or advice, please understand that any arrangements you make or agreement you undertake is entirely at your own risk.  This might sound harsh, but this website can not verify the legitimacy of any request and it is the responsibility of the parties involved to reach whatever agreement they choose.

By the same token, If your group is approached by another group or individual, please be sure you are happy with any arrangements you make.

Uhad2bthere can not accept any liability and only offers this free service entirely at its own discretion and with that understanding.

If you would like to know more, place a request or you have a specific question please contact us.

FAQ's about the directory
Problems with the code

Some visitors have reported a problem with using the code boxes that are sometimes required, particularly at the bottom of forms.  All the codes can be entered using lowercase letters only, regardless of the case of the characters presented. And its not always easy to differentiate between lowercase j and i so please bear that it mind when entering the letters.

Registration Confirmation Emails

AOL users have reported a problem with using the link in the email to confirm an account. If this happens to you, please contact us and we can activate your account manually.

Not sure which form to use, Add Charity URL or Add Premium URL?

Essentially whichever form you use to submit a URL to the directory we still get the information!  However when you complete the Add Premium URL form you will be taken on to further pages to make a payment immediately through PayPal, or to select another billing method.

If you intended to submit a listing which was meant to be free, don't panic ... If you get to the page entitled Payments Through PayPal, just click the link in the main menu to go to the home page.  All submissions are reviewed before being made available on the directory, If we think you should of paid, we will tell you! Equally if we think you may of used the wrong form we will sort it out for you too ...

Inclusion Policy
uhad2bthere and its directory are about disability.  It might be obvious to say this, but if you want to be included in the directory and your product or service is not related to disability, or is not of obvious benefit to people with a disability then its probably not for you.

Regardless of whether you have free inclusion in the directory (a Charity URL) or a Premium URL listing, inclusion in the directory is entirely at the discretion of the site and its owners.  If you have applied to be included in the directory and your request has been rejected you will normally receive an explanation from a human being to tell you the reason.  In some cases you may be offered suggestions about how you may modify your wording to make your application acceptable. 

If you have paid for a Premium listing and it is rejected and you do not wish to modify your wording or you are just not given the opportunity, your payment will be returned to  you in full within 28 days.

If your product or service is judged to provide a poor service to people with a disability, even after your inclusion on the directory, uhad2bthere reserves the right to either not include your listing or remove your listing from the directory.  If following inclusion your listing is removed within 28 days of your application, then any payment you have made will be refunded to you, less a £10 administration fee.

Uhad2bthere can accept no liability for circumstances considered to be outside of its reasonable control. And you understand and agree that in requesting that you be included in the directory you are bound by these terms and conditions, both in fact and in the spirit of this agreement and inclusion policy.

Is uhad2bthere for profit?
No, is the brief answer ...

However, we do encourage commercial organisations to sign up for paid listings using the Premium URL system in order to help cover the cost  of maintaining the site and to recover some of the original start up costs.

We do also receive small payments from Google and Amazon whenever the links on the right hand side of the page are clicked ... So if you are going to buy stuff from Amazon why not do it through one of our links? The final price to you is the same, but uhad2bthere benefits too!

uhad2bthere Shirts & Stuff
The Basics

The shop is partnered with Shirtcity.com.  So that means that Shirtcity are responsible for producing the items, despatch and all payment transactions. uhad2bthere does take a small commission, typically on average about £1 per item. But its important to note that should you purchase an item you are purchasing from Shirtcity and not from us.

Any problems with orders or questions about an item should be addressed to them through the 'Contact Us' link near the bottom of the shop page.

Custom designs for you?

We can produce one off custom designs either for your organisation or you as an individual, on t-shirts, mugs, caps, bags, and a whole host of other items.  New designs that are text based are free to design, though items that involve pictures, graphics or logos cost us an initial fee of £1.50 to upload the imagery.  If you have a design made with a graphic, please bear this in mind and buy at least one item so that we are not out of pocket, please.

Shirtcity produce the items in ones and twos depending on the orders they receive so if your potential order is likely to exceed say 15 - 20 off of a particular item (say 15 medium t-shirts in red, or 15 identical white mugs) then you may be better off searching around the web first ...

If you would like a custom design please contact us to discuss this.

Copyright

The designs in the shop are exclusive and are therefore protected.  If you want a design from the shop that bad, buy it from the shop!

Disclaimer!

Some of the designs on the t-shirts may be considered a little er, rude.  if you are offended sorry.  If you want to buy one great. Just be careful where you take your jumper off.
