All Ways Access

Accessible and Inclusive Design Consultancy led by a former NHS Director & Wheelchair User.

All Ways Access provides strategic consultancy to bridge the gap between compliance and reality in the built environment. Founded by Will Weston, a former NHS Medical Services Director and full-time wheelchair user, the consultancy offers a unique blend of high-level operational experience and lived reality. This background ensures a strictly pragmatic approach: Will understands that organisations need spaces that work for everyone – visitors, audiences, performers, and staff – without compromising on aesthetics or budget.

All Ways Access moves beyond simple “tick-box” compliance to help organisations (including theatres, museums, galleries, outdoor spaces and stadia) avoid the compliant-but-flawed traps that plague modern projects. Will identifies hidden failures across the full spectrum of need, whether physical, sensory, or cognitive: from the “Echo Chamber” where acoustics may exclude neurodivergent guests, to the “Accessible Labyrinth Route” that isolates wheelchair users. By applying the All Ways Access Reality Lens, Will safeguards your space against costly future retrofitting and helps ensure your capital investment actually broadens your market.

The All Ways Access Offer:

• Strategic Accessibility Reviews: Will’s comprehensive evaluations of existing venues or pre-construction plans identify the “Implementation Gap” between design theory and operational reality, delivering realistic recommendations before it becomes an expensive problem.
• Capital Project Consultancy: Will collaborates with architects and contractors at all RIBA Stages to ensure inclusive design is seamless and elegant, avoiding the “ugly add-on” effect.
• Operational & Policy Guidance: Will leverages 15 years of senior healthcare management to ensure you meet the highest standards of social responsibility and the Equality Act.

Please make contact to discover how strategic oversight from All Ways Access can ensure your venue is truly welcoming to all.
