An accessibility audit provides a comprehensive evaluation of your school's facilities to ensure they are welcoming and usable for everyone. This assessment identifies areas for improvement in accessibility, helping to create an inclusive environment where all students, staff, and visitors can move freely and comfortably. By conducting an accessibility audit, you not only comply with legal requirements but also demonstrate a commitment to creating a supportive and equitable space for everyone. It’s a proactive step towards enhancing overall accessibility and fostering a community where everyone feels valued and included.
This project pairs well with accessible garden and adaptive swing projects.
