Today marks one year since I launched Access Coasters! Thank you everyone that has supported the content I have created and I really help you have found it useful when planning your own adventures.
Celebratory announcement graphic with a yellow background. At the top, bold black text reads: "1 Year Of Access Coasters". Below this, there is a large circular logo for "Access Coasters Theme Park Accessibility Blog". The logo features a cartoon person with glasses, wearing a blue party hat with a pink pom-pom, riding a roller coaster car with arms raised in excitement. White sparkles are scattered around the logo. Under the logo, black text says: "New category coming soon: Visitor Attractions", with "Visitor Attractions" in bold. At the bottom, there is a black rectangle containing two icons: one of a person with an accessibility symbol and a checkmark, and another of a globe with two location pins. The overall design is cheerful and festive, celebrating the blog's anniversary and announcing a new content category.

Ahead of closing weekend just a little note from me: please don’t feel like you are responsible for ‘looking after someone’ if someone needs a carer then they would have come with one and please don’t feel like you can’t be loud just because I’m there. Love Iona ☺️
