That is why we are working with venues and organisations representing disabled people to identify barriers to access, while at the same time seeing how we can share examples of best practice and what more cultural venues need to do to be accessible to people with disabilities. We support the work of Attitude is Everything, which works with audiences, artists and the music industry to improve deaf and disabled people’s access to live events. I also recently held a roundtable meeting with Justin Tomlinson, Minister for Disabled People, to look at access to cultural venues and events for disabled people.</p> answering member constituency Wantage answering member printed Mr Edward Vaizey question first answered 27/01/2016 14:06:29 answering member 1580 label Biography information for Lord Vaizey of Didcot
