Well done to Sydney Showground on their new upgrades designed to make the venue more inclusive and accessible.

The upgrades include a quiet 'sensory' room for those needing a break from activity, an adult assisted change room with electric hoist and adult-sized change table, and an updated parent room. This will have a genuine impact for event attendees 👏

Today is International Day of People with Disability and an opportunity to talk about what we can all do to make events and workplaces entirely inclusive. While there has been great progress in recent times, we still have a long way to go;
🧑‍🦼 1 in 5 people worldwide live with some form of disability. Yet, just 1 in 4 of those with disabilities are employed
💼 70% of people with disabilities report discrimination in the workplace
☎️ Over 1 million Australians with disability are socially isolated, with limited access to community engagement, furthering their exclusion from society

Accessibility is not a mere afterthought – it is a fundamental right. Our communities will thrive, becoming more cohesive, inclusive, and effective, when we embrace people of all backgrounds and abilities.

We are proud to help bring these conversations to light with our many partnerships with advocate organisations, including AGOSCI - representing people with complex communications needs - Asia Pacific Autism Conference 2025, Virtual Disability Conference in September 2024 and more. These conferences are driving the narrative and laying the path to more inclusive societies across the world.
