Community Treasure film
A general introduction to Community Treasure and the kind of relational work we do across Birmingham.
We want Community Treasure to be usable, welcoming and easier to understand for as many people as possible. This page brings together the access information we can currently share about the website, our activities, and the support we can talk through with you before taking part.
If you need information in a different format, contact us and we will talk through what would be most useful. We are developing shorter summaries, Easy Read approaches, and clearer access information as the site grows.
We try to use plain, welcoming language and avoid unnecessary jargon. If something we share is unclear, we want to know so we can explain it differently.
Different people take part in different ways. We can talk about session length, breaks, quieter ways of contributing, and how to make the pace of an activity more manageable.
If you need to attend with a personal assistant, support worker, interpreter, or carer, let us know when you contact us so we can plan with you rather than leave this to the day.
We are paying more attention to movement, visual load, noise, lighting and room setup. If you need more detailed information before attending, ask us and we will share what we know about the space.
Access arrangements vary between venues and community spaces. We can talk through entrances, toilets, seating, travel and layout in advance where details are available.
We are working to make the website easier to scan and navigate, with reduced automatic motion, clearer headings, visible focus states, and simpler content structure.
If an event takes place online, we can talk through platform access, joining instructions, captions where available, and the format of the session before it starts.
We want people to know what to expect. Ask us about timing, venue setup, travel, toilets, refreshments, or anything else that will help you decide whether the activity is right for you.
If something is not working on the day, we want people to tell us. That might include seating, sound levels, group format, pacing, or the need for a break.
Where refreshments are part of an activity, tell us about allergies, dietary needs or anything else that could affect your ability to take part comfortably.
We are building a fuller picture of access information for individual Community Treasure activities and venues so people can make informed choices without needing to chase basic details.
We want this page to improve through feedback from disabled people, neurodivergent people, and anyone who has found a barrier in our website, communication or activities.
