Access & Inclusivity Matters

I qualified on the VocalEyes: Audio Description for live theatre training course in 2019.

I co-described & Juliet at The Shaftesbury, London in March 2020. Available for all types of audio description work, whether live or remotely delivered or recorded.
I was an Access Officer in a large commercial theatre for 23 years. I now deliver everyday accessibility training to arts, leisure and community organisations. My training focusses on embedding inclusive customer service for a broad range of access requirements and across departments, with additional packages focussing on front of house and volunteers, and how to set-up and successfully deliver assisted performances.
