Omnium Radios new disability friendly studio

You may be asking, how can you make a radio studio disability friendly?

1. Two radio desks both at different heights to cater for wheelchair users

2. Flat bar entrance for easy access for wheelchair users

3. Condensed equipment situated close together for people with limited arm movement

4. Large screens with adjustable font size for people with visual impairment

5. Coloured lighting that can be used with or without the mains lighting to create a calming and sensual environment for those living with autism

The new studio has gone down very well so far with our volunteer presenters with smiles all around.

Omnium Radio has presenters of all different abilities both living with and with out disabilities and/or mental health conditions.
