Visual Impairment Training Partnerships in accessibility consultancy and inclusive design

Role: Strategic Consultant & Co-Designer

"Eyes4Positivity was the lead partner for the Visual Impairment Heritage Partnership (VIHP), an initiative spearheaded by MOLA to revolutionise inclusive design in the heritage sector. As a primary consultant specialising in accessibility consultancy, I upskilled MOLA staff and co-designed a series of workshops focused on inclusive design that directly influenced national guidance on cultural accessibility.

Key outcomes of this partnership included:

• Co-Design Innovation: Integrating lived experience into the creation of accessible exhibitions.

• Sensory Integration: Advocating for tactile, auditory, and descriptive elements in public displays.

• Sector-Wide Guidance: Establishing best-practice frameworks for heritage professionals to improve the visitor experience for those with sight loss.
