A graduate of the University of Reading in Building Surveying, he spent years working with local councils on Disabled Facilities Grants (DFG) before moving into private consultancy. Graham's expertise lies in the structural and spatial requirements of mobility aids, teaching users how to measure hallway turning circles and select the correct gradient for ramps to avoid tipping.
