“Tete Tote Travel Agency” top page Try Angle, a general incorporated association (Headquarters: Kanazawa City, Ishikawa Prefecture, Representative Director: Mayuko Suda, hereinafter referred to as “Try Angle”), has released “Tete Tote Travel Agency”, an information portal site that supports children under medical care when traveling and going out. I did. In this portal site, • Information on commercial facilities and accommodation facilities nationwide that are ready to accept children under medical care • Information on events that are easy for families with children under medical care to participate • Useful information such as things to be careful about when moving and useful goods to have. We will continue to post such things. We will also receive information from businesses and organizations that support children in medical care, as well as tourism businesses that promote the acceptance of children in medical care, and will deliver this information to families with children in medical care. “Tetetote Travel Agency” website: https://tetetote-travel.jp/ Background of the production of “Tete Tote Travel Agency” The number of “medically required children” who require suction of sputum or artificial respirators in order to survive is on the rise, and it is said that there are approximately 20,000 children nationwide. The reality is that children requiring medical care are in large wheelchairs that can carry medical equipment, and require access to a power source, making long-distance transportation and travel difficult. On the other hand, according to a survey conducted in 2020 targeting families of children in medical care, 96.8% of respondents responded to the question of what their families would like to do in their daily lives by saying, “going out and traveling.” (*1).

I have done it. As the idea of ​​barrier-free and inclusion has become more widespread throughout society, the number of facilities that can accommodate them is gradually
increasing.

No. We have also learned that facilities are worried about how to convey to those involved that they are ready to accept patients. Based on the travel needs and current situation of children under medical care as mentioned above, Try Angle has decided to create a portal site with useful information for outings for children under medical care. Regarding the production costs, we received a total of over 1.5 million yen in support from 138 people through crowdfunding, as well as a grant from the Benesse Children’s Fund. Future prospects Currently, we are publishing more than 10 articles, including introductions to accommodation facilities that we have covered and tried out at Try Angle, and useful information for traveling with children under medical care. In the future, in addition to “distributing information about commercial facilities and accommodation facilities nationwide that are ready to accept guests” and “distributing event information,” we will Strengthening the publication of “travel/outing reports by the families of those involved” We will do so. In addition, “children in medical care and their families,” “tourism operators,” “businesses and organizations that support children in medical care,” etc. will provide information and build a network where they can connect with each other. By connecting with people all over the country and understanding the needs of each child in medical care while exchanging local information with each other, we will create a place to support travel through teamwork, and in the future, we hope to We aim to establish a “counter that responds to individual consultations.” About Try Angle Try Angle, a general incorporated association, is based on the vision of creating a society where everyone can enjoy traveling with peace of mind, regardless of whether they have an illness or disability, and mainly provides support for outings and trips for children under medical care, and tourism. Conducted training for business operators. Through our activities, we aim to develop universal tourism. Currently, we are creating and selling “Travel Guidelines for Children in Medical Care” to make it easier for children in medical care who live with medical devices such as ventilators and gastric fistulas to travel.
