Weymouth Town Council is looking for volunteer Accessibility Ambassadors to help assess accessibility beyond the beach and across Weymouth town.
As a way of building on the Weymouth Beach Access Project, Weymouth Town Council are launching the Beyond the Beach Accessibility Audit whereby they will be working with local businesses to find out what they are already offering in terms of accessible services and facilities and linking them up with the globally recognised
This initiative will work with local businesses to identify and promote the accessible facilities and services they already offer, linking them with the globally recognised Snowball Accessibility App. Participating businesses will be featured on the app and will receive a Snowball-approved window sticker and certificate to recognise their commitment to accessibility.
To make this possible, Weymouth Town Council is recruiting volunteer Accessibility Ambassadors to visit local businesses and guide them through a simple 10-minute accessibility checklist. Full guidance will be provided, and no prior experience is necessary.
