Joey Dunlop House Hopes To Open Up The Isle Of Man To Visitors With Disabilities

The team behind the Joey Dunlop Foundation Braddan Bridge House facility are appealing to the public in an effort to correct a misunderstanding about the complex.
 
It was opened last TT after 10 years of constant fundraising.
 
It provides three self-contained disabled accessible apartments, each offering self-catered accommodation.

This mulit - million pound venture has many benefits including Proximity to the TT Course, convenience to sea terminal and hospital.

The charity was set up in the name of Joey Dunlop.

When he died, work got underway in creating these much needed facilities, which were officially opened on Joeys tenth anniversary last year.

We spoke to Chairman from the Joey Dunlop Foundation Kev Quirk, he is keen to get across that the facility is open to all individuals with disabilities, not just those who have received motorsports injuries.
