ACCESSIBILITY
Our Accessibility Strategy
Accessibility accommodations and changes don’t happen on their own. It takes time, education, dedicated effort, and a keen accessibility strategy to accomplish. Fortunately, we have each of these qualities in spades. And, as part of the Liverpool city region, we strongly believe in having “accessibility at the heart of all that we provide” – which is why our accessibility strategy is so important to us.
Understanding our accessibility strategy
Although they are an essential part, accessibility is about more than physical accommodations. It’s about making sure the culture and attitudes of our venue reflect an openness to learning, and continuing commitment to positive change.
At Exhibition Centre Liverpool, we are continually working behind the scenes to increase the accessibility and usability of our venues, making sure that every visit to our campus is an enjoyable one. We are committed to fair and equal growth and development as part of our wider Accessibility Strategy, working to ensure that every visitor has what they need to enjoy our venue as much as possible. Prioritising some of the following steps, we want to lead by example when it comes to accessibility.
- Working with customers and visitors to recognise and understand diverse accessibility needs and how we can best accommodate these.
- Making accessibility a key consideration in everything we do, including future developments across our campus.
- Investing in technology and systems that will improve the inclusivity and accessibility of our facilities.
- Creating and promoting a welcoming and inclusive culture amongst staff and visitors.
Above all, we want to make a positive impact to our wonderful city; not just in an economic way, but through education, wellbeing, and inclusion. With this wider influence in mind, our Accessibility Strategy forms part of our Social Value Impact Plan, is an integral part of our community pillar, and runs over 3 years at a time.
