We're excited to share that we've updated one of our most important resources - Access for All: Creating accessible places and spaces.

Access for All is designed to support local activity providers to make their activities and venues more accessible for disabled people, with some small low-cost changes. The guide provides practical examples of how to ensure spaces and places are inclusive.

We have worked with accessibility and inclusion specialist Jean Hewitt at Buro Happold alongside a range of expert organisations to update the document. The updated guidance now includes advice for activities in community venues, green and blue spaces, such as parks and lakes. That is as well as low-cost practical examples of how to ensure activities taking place in traditional places, like sports halls and sports clubs are accessible.
