10am – 4pm, Erasmus Darwin House, Lichfield WS13 7AD
West Midlands Museum Development is launching another round of Access Audits for 2017.
Ann Johnson, Managing Director of Wave-length CIC will lead a full day workshop, introducing and outlining a broad range of physical and social access considerations, and highlighting relevant legislation. Following the workshop Ann will visit each participating museum site to undertake a full Access Audit, making suggestions for short and long term development. Ann will discuss her findings with a representative from each museum and produce a detailed written report following the visit.
Attendance at the launch workshop on 4 May is essential for all museums wishing to take part in the Access Audit programme. Please note that museum places are limited, a maximum of two representatives from each organisation may attend.
Participation in the Access Audit programme directly contributes to Section 3.2.1 of the Arts Council England Accreditation Return.
Quote from a previous participant:
“Ann led a thought provoking and wide ranging access workshop, with useful supporting materials, at Wolverhampton. It was a pleasure to see her again when she came to make an access audit visit to our Museum in March 2016. As well as giving us good advice, she listened sympathetically and constructively to the problems that we have with our building, and the constraints that it imposes upon us. Her report was extremely helpful. It gave us information on relevant legislation and examples of good practice, as well as giving us a list of recommendations that should keep us busy for years!“ – Deborah Jarman, Voluntary Education and Outreach Officer Leominster Museum
This is a free event. Refreshments and lunch are provided.
