RAILCARD SITE AGAINIan, a Word version of the form would certainly be an
improvement on what is on offer now.

As for a text version, not absolutely sure what's meant here, but if that were a
propper HTML form then, as far as I'm concerned, that would be better still.

Still, that doesn't get you around the need for validation of your initial
application as Social Services or a professional of some brand or other has to 
be
found to confirm you are registered blind or other valid criterea you might 
meet.

Wouldn't it be nice if we could be given some nationally recognized ID of being
registered.  Or would it be nice?  Administrative and civil liberties issues
accepted, it would be convenient if various concessions could be cleared in that
way.  Too complicated I guess.

  Following my enquiry to ATOC's head of inclusion and accessibility, here's his
response.  I'd asked him to put a text version of the form up as an alternative 
to
PDF and also wondered why it wasn't possible to apply online.  He says:

  Ian, I will get a word version of the form organised.  As for online ren ewals
at the moment there is v.low demand for this - but we are monitoring the
situation. At the moment the cost of providing the facility outweigh the 
benefits.
