What does it take to make a place accessible for everyone? Our Senior Leadership Team got to experience it first-hand! 👀

From navigating a bathroom in a wheelchair to crossing a road with a visual impairment, our team took part in an eye-opening accessibility simulation led by our Built Environment Access Panel (BEAP).

It was a powerful reminder that things we might take for granted can look very different depending on how we experience the world.

Accessibility and inclusivity has been part of the Park’s story since the London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games, and we’re continuing to make Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park a place where everyone can feel welcome. 💜
