This is what inclusion looks and sounds like.
David and Mary, were recently invited by Hidden Disabilities Sunflower Australia & New Zealand to attend a relaxed performance by the Melbourne Symphony Orchestra at Hamer Hall. This was an evening featuring the music of Mahler and Tchaikovsky, designed to be genuinely welcoming to people who find traditional concert environments challenging.
They went to enjoy the music and also to share their feedback on what accessibility looks like in practice. Their reflections are a reminder of how much the small details matter when it comes to inclusion.
