Accessible Tourism Enabler

An initiative of Braille House supported by the Queensland State Government's Accessible Tourism Enabler Grant.

Braille House has engaged in a collaborative process amongst stakeholders to deliver a comprehensive package of resources, ultimately to enable people who are blind or have low vision to function more independently and with equity and dignity in the tourism and visitor setting.
