Do you have accessibility facilities, such as accessible bedroom(s) or a quiet space, or has your venue been designed to cater for wheelchair users or visitors with hearing or sight impairments? Do these facilities appeal to your current customer base? Do you provide detailed information about these facilities on your website?
If the answer to any of these questions is yes, this session will be of interest to you.
