School staff are being prevented from helping children cross a busy road to get to a Liverpool school, according to a concerned blind family.
Greg and Allisha Jones, of Selwyn Street, are both registered blind and have expressed their concerns about a busy junction near their daughter’s school, St Francis de Sales Catholic Junior School. They claim they fear for their family's safety when crossing the junction of Hale Road and Carrisbrook Road.
Mr and Mrs Jones have praised the school for their support as they live with sight loss, with a no parking zone put in place to ease their struggles in picking up their child. The couple have now suggested Liverpool Council is preventing staff at the school from helping children cross the road.
