Working with AccessAble
Visit Nottinghamshire is working in partnership with leading national disability organisation, AccessAble, to enable tourism and hospitality businesses in the region to provide quality assured accessibility information. Through AccessAble’s Your Accessibility Guide portal, businesses can book and pay for either a Guided or On Site assessment of their venue, where a professional surveyor will create a quality-assured Detailed Access Guide. The guides are full of facts, figures and photographs disabled people have said they need to plan their visit, and are designed to serve people with a wide range of conditions. Businesses will also receive a confidential Accessibility Improvement Report.
Detailed Access Guides are published and searchable on AccessAble’s website, currently used by more than six million people a year.
If you are a business or venue, you can visit the portal now at VisitNottinghamshire.YourAccessibilityGuide.co.uk to find out more about the service and how to get involved.
