More about the Accessible Calderdale Project
The Accessible Calderdale Project, commenced in 2018 with the aim to reduce inequality, remove barriers, promote inclusion and improve access to our local community and visitors, enabling all people to have equal opportunities, make a positive contribution and lead purposeful lives.
“We aim to create choices and a more cohesive community where everyone has the opportunity to interact and play an equal part in society.”
You can keep up to date with the Accessible Calderdale Project on our Facebook page.
Our Aims and Objectives
Working in co-production with our Accessible Calderdale Disability Forum, we work towards removing both the physical and non-physical barriers to inclusion by:
- Raising awareness and changing attitudes towards disabled people to enable positive interaction in everyday life
- Promoting accessible venues, places of interest, green spaces, new builds & regeneration projects
- Disability equality and customer service training
- Working collaboratively with key organisations
Co-production/Partnerships
A co-production and partnership approach is central to our work. We work closely with a wide range of colleagues from key organisations and stakeholders including Calderdale Council Visit Calderdale, Visit Hebden and Visit Todmorden to improve the accessibility of information provided on their websites, to ensure that there are up to date access statements, and that all venues, businesses and organisations are able to have access audits.
We encourage disabled people to review local places and for this to be used on Visit Calderdale website.
