Queensland Government - Department of Tourism, Innovation and Sport

The Igniting Accessible Experiences podcast series, produced in partnership with Get Skilled Access, helps Queensland tourism operators make their services more accessible and inclusive. 

“You’re going to open up the doors to 20% more of the population by putting accessibility and inclusion at the forefront.”

In this episode, co-hosts Ben Pettingill and Bridie McKim are joined by Michael Hughes, a wheelchair user, to discuss what makes tourism accessible for them and how tourism operators can provide an inclusive experience.

The team discusses implementing accessible information, accessible features, adjustments, inclusive attitudes, and etiquette.

Tune in to more episodes as Ben and Bridie chat with people with disability and tourism operators to uncover learnings from both perspectives on experiencing and providing accessible tourism.
