A Burnley teenager with cerebral palsy is leading a fight to ensure disabled people can enjoy funfair rides – after being turned away at Blackpool Pleasure Beach.
Blessed Trinity student Nicky Shepherd (15) was so upset at his treatment he has started a petition so other disabled people will not suffer the same humiliation.
The Year 10 student, who has been in a wheelchair all his life, went on a school trip in July to the Pleasure Beach.
