Disabled people can find out about the easiest shops and services to use in their area with a new guide.
The latest Access Guide for West Berkshire is launched by the district council on Tuesday jointly with West Berkshire Disability Alliance (WBDA).
Its authors say it shows more local shops are improving wheelchair access.
People can pick up a guide at tourist information centres, libraries, council offices and Shop Mobility branches. A taped version is available on request.
Mick Hutchins, chairman of the WBDA, said: "The guide enables people to plan journeys with confidence.
"Knowing that there are facilities en route or at their destination that can accommodate them opens up a whole new world."
