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.

Case Studies

Four Queensland-based tourism operators committed to improving accessibility for vision impaired visitors used our Self-Assessment checklists to assess their facilities and services. Their findings served as a foundation for their next steps.

These case studies not only provided Braille House with valuable feedback to refine the audits before publication but also offer insights for other providers seeking to enhance accessibility for blind or low vision visitors.
