Suitable applicant.
« on: August 05, 2013, 14:27:36 »
Can anyone, suggest another word for health,  in the following sentence please.

Your gender, race, cultural background, sexual orientation, religion or health is not a barrier to you renting an allotment.

Many thanks

2012 - Snow in February, non-stop rain till July. Blight and rot are rife. Thieving voles cause strife. But first runner beans and lots of greens. Follow an English allotment in urban France: http://roos-and-camembert.blogspot.com

As Cdave says what is wrong with 'health' ?

You could consider "well being"

Sorry, but are you saying that you plan on discriminating against applicants on grounds other than these?  Why would you presume to do that?  Just don't say anything, and then there's an implied policy of not discriminating on any grounds.

Thankyou everybody, for your input. On further research it appears that the word health is a legal nicety, its an umbrella term, covering a multitude of aspects.
