Hi all, let's begin our next edition of the Tip of the Week discussion!  Accessibility and inclusion have always been important, but with rising numbers of people living with a disability, it's now, more than ever, a fundamental part of your event planning. 
Whether staging a small meeting or a large conference, carefully considering accessibility will ensure all your attendees have a positive and inclusive event experience.  

5 Steps to Planning Accessible Events 

1. Registration  

 Make sure your event registration page asks the right questions and includes checkboxes.  

These could include questions such as: 

2. Onsite Experience 

 To improve the onsite experience, put yourself in the shoes of a person with disabilities (PWD) and consider their entire attendee journey.   

•  Wheelchair accessibility
• Service animals
• Wellness spaces
• Stage sets and lighting

3. Virtual and Hybrid Events  

 Making your events accessible also extends to virtual and hybrid formats. Here are some tips: 

 
4. Communication and Information Accessibility  

 Including accessibility information in the design of your pre-event communications is critical. 

For instance, add a simple line at the base of posters or flyers written in black text on a light background that reads, 'Our theatre is wheelchair accessible' or 'A sign language interpreter will be available.' 

 
5. Staff Training and Awareness  

Create a culture of inclusion by ensuring that everyone involved in the planning and execution of your event is given training. 
Accessibility in event planning is a must. With over a billion people, or 16% of the world's population, experiencing some form of disability, making your events more accessible and inclusive is a moral and legal obligation.
