Historic Environments
Surprisingly this sector has made the most significant strides in making properties more accessible, welcoming and easy to use. Some of the core issues about easy access to ancient buildings and landscapes have been identified and innovative ways of eliminating barriers have been developed so that historic environments can become more accessible and enjoyable for all.
Access Collaboration Ltd offers expert advice on issues specific to historic environments and seeks to develop access, taking into consideration the specific challenges in improving access in historic environments.
Access Collaboration has conducted the ongoing audits for the National Trust since 2003 and continues to work closely with the National Trust on all access issues. We have also been appointed as access consultants to Canterbury City Council and Kent County Council to assist in the regeneration of Arts Centres in the South East.
