Bring Access Declared to your organisation

Access Declared doesn't ask organisations to become more accessible overnight. It helps them become more transparent today. A free, quick way to help attendees understand what to expect before your event. No specialist knowledge, no complicated process and no cost to use.

The business case

Why leaders say yes to this

Builds trust, not risk

Sharing clear accessibility information upfront shows attendees you've thought about their experience before they arrive. It builds trust, reduces uncertainty and helps prevent unnecessary last-minute emails.

Costs nothing

Free to use, with no software to buy, no accounts to manage and no ongoing subscription. Just create your declaration and share it.

Usually takes 5-10 minutes

No policy rewrite. No lengthy implementation. One person can create a declaration in around 5-10 minutes and share it alongside existing event information.

Opt-in, not mandatory

Access Declared fits alongside your existing event planning process. It isn't a new system to adopt or a replacement for your existing accessibility work.

No scoring, no ranking

No certification. No audit. No ranking. Just a simple way to share what attendees can expect before your event.

A timely step for organisations

The updated statutory Equality Act Code of Practice makes the anticipatory nature of the reasonable adjustments duty clearer: service providers should consider the needs of disabled people in advance, rather than waiting until an individual experiences a barrier. Access Declared can help event and meeting organisers put that principle into practice by considering and communicating accessibility information before an event.

Access Declared is a communication tool, not legal advice or evidence of Equality Act compliance.
