Hi, I’m Amy ♥️ I’ve made a little map explaining my experience of the access queue to see our amazing Queen lying in state. I hope it helps anyone that would love to go but is worried how ‘accessible‘ it really is. Zoom in!

  10. Thanks. that’s great map and love the sytle

    Do they really send wheelchairs through an arch????

    When I ever my daughter goes through airport/gov building you go round the arch and they just wave a wand over?

    Security would be one of most confusing thing for people not use to airport.

    Also my daughter requires quite a large bag of food feeding tube stuff and toileting pads and wipes for a 12yo take up more room than they seem to allow.

  12. Hi Amy, thanks for this. My fiancée uses a wheelchair, we can’t make it down to London but this would have been really useful if we did.

  18. Nicely done!

    Has reinforced my fear that they’ll be asking “did you go to see the Queen?” in PIP assessments – that’s accessible for chairs and scooters, but unworkable for those on foot who “cannot mobilise 50m without pain”.

  27. Nice idea but considering the queue is over 24 h and Monday is in 1.5 days …. It starts to be worthless to wait as they will have eventually burry her.

  30. As useful as your map was, we won’t be able to use it as earlier this afternoon it was announced that the queue had been permanently closed.

    Such a boomer because we had planned to get there tomorrow Sunday in the early hours; the only day we could make it.

    I read that this queue system may have been abused by people with no disabilities and we’re a bit angry. Unbelievably naive, and unfair to others, that they staff wouldn’t request proof of disability before issuing wristqnd like there’s no tomorrow

  31. It’s a dead body rotting in a box. It’s not the Queen anymore, she’s dead. She can’t tell and doesn’t know you’re visiting, it’s a waste of time.
