Make Way Day highlights the needs of people with disabilities in public spaces.

A number of towns around county Roscommon will stage public demonstrations tomorrow to highlight Make Way Day.

The campaign is aimed at highlighting the problems that people with disabilities sometimes experience on our footpaths and streets.
