Join us Wednesday 2 October 14:00 - 15:00 for a session with Charlie Little (she/they), Film Hub Scotland’s Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Champion.
 
In this session, Charlie will talk about what exhibitors can do to make their venues, programmes, and communications accessible to blind and partially sighted audiences. 
 
The presentation will be a mix of insights, recommendations, and case studies. We encourage our members to join in on the conversation as well as to think holistically about how they can create more inclusive spaces for disabled audiences.
