Teresina’s story – access to buildings in Italy
According to the architect and the building contractor there were no architectural barriers to entering the building. Teresina had to speak with the municipal surveyor and wrote to the municipality. Thanks to her action, the building contractor had to fix the two steps at the entrance so that Teresina could get in and out easily.
This seemingly small change has had a huge impact on Teresina. She told us: “The changes in the building had brought benefits to my family. My sister and my brother-in-law are both happy to see me living alone and I’m independent. My self-sufficiency relieves my sister and her family of the pressure to assist me. “
