Going on vacation when you have a motor disability?

Not obvious, given the few accommodations that can claim the Tourism & Handicap label.

The TaKaHut housing exchange platform, launched in 2019, proposes to remedy this.

It allows people with motor disabilities - there are nearly 850,000 in France according to INSEE - to exchange their housing for another equipped.

Make vacations 🏖️ accessible?

“Holidays are what we all expect to be able to breathe.

It's important not to give it up when you have a disability, ”confides Emilie Cordier, 38-year-old disabled person and user of the site.

The Eiffel Tower, the Louvre… It is thanks to TaKaHut that Emilie was able to discover these essential places of the capital with her children.

During this time, Nicolas, a quadriplegic, was able to take advantage of his accommodation near Nantes.

"I felt independent," she smiles, thinking about this week.

Between a shower chair and no steps, the whole apartment was suitable.

"It's reassuring to leave"

In the past, this mother had experienced some disappointments in lodgings that were supposed to be accessible.

“Once the oven was too high and I burned myself,” she squeals.

I ended up cutting my vacation short.

»With TaKaHut, no bad surprises.

"It's reassuring to leave," she insists.

The site is free and does not require a deposit.

A real bonus for those with a small income.

The only downside, and it is important, remains the number of homes listed: around thirty to date.

"The difficulty is to match the profiles", recognizes the creator of the platform.

There is only one solution to help the site grow: register!
