Attitude is Everything

Attitude is Everything is a disabled-led charity that connects Deaf, disabled and neurodivergent people with music and live event industries to improve access together.

Since 2000, we have created positive change through our consultancy and training services that improve access for audiences, artists and professionals. This includes our UK-Government endorsed Live Events Access Charter, a framework for holistic accessibility improvements that is free to join for music and arts venues and festivals. For commercial events, and those outside of our funding, we also provide charter membership through a supported package. 

We also have a unique, in depth understanding of the All In Accessibility Standards, as we were commissioned to author them.

Through our work, organisations receive practical guidance and solutions, roadmaps for progression and a trusted voice for creating welcoming and inclusive spaces for our community. We support you to understand how accessibility standards work in practice, how to create accessible workplace cultures, and how to grow your audiences year on year.

We collaborate with you to invest in accessibility; building joyful, inclusive spaces.

• Problem solving and bespoke accessibility advice
• On-site visits and access reviews
• Observational feedback reports
• Experiential access reviews

We regularly offer a reduction for charities and are open to discussing pricing depending on the scope of the project.
