Wheelchair user Sara Ballentyne, from Pollok, was in the city centre for a shopping trip when she was approached by the stranger. She says the incident highlights how vulnerable she feels when alone.
A Glasgow mum has been left scared to go out on her own after being sexually harassed while waiting for a bus on a busy city centre street.
"The man kept trying to grab me and trying to kiss me. I was just begging for the bus to come because I was so uncomfortable and felt like I couldn't get away from the guy. Sara, who only became a wheelchair user three years ago following an injury to her spine, says she has now lost confidence in going out on her own. She continued: "I feel a lot more unsafe going out on my own. I can't go by the place where it happened."I felt vulnerable in the wheelchair. For the longest time, I felt like I had the smallest amount of freedom.
Sara, who can't walk more than a few steps, is now hoping to raise funds to buy a folding wheelchair which will allow her to travel in the car and to deal with the pain she experiences in her current powerchair. She hopes it will also allow her to do more activities with her kids.
