Accessibility statement generator

This is an accessibility statement generator designed to provide clear and concise access information for events.

Just fill in the information you have, hit generate and then copy the text produced (which you can edit in place) to wherever you need it. Having clear information is very important for an event to be as accessible as possible - if you don't know you can get into an event then you may just not bother trying, no event is truly accessible without the information to say that it is!

There are two versions that you can click through to use, we encourage you to use the standard version (the one displayed by default) but if you want to use a shorter version just click through, you can ignore the other comments and contact details boxes, though we do encourage you to have some contact details in case of questions somewhere on your material.

Even these questions are not necessarily complete in terms of providing comprehensive access information (for instance, if a venue has ramps which are the two narrow ramps, these are suitable only for manual wheelchairs not powerchairs, and many wheelchair users prefer to avoid them regardless). Please think about other details you might want to add in the further comments section.
