At Ruth Allen studio, we are on a journey towards enhancing accessibility to ensure that our glassblowing experiences can be enjoyed by everyone. While we are in the early stages of this endeavour, accessibility is a priority and we are taking meaningful steps to make our studio more inclusive:

1. Initiating Physical Accessibility Improvements: We are actively exploring and implementing physical accessibility enhancements in our studio space. This includes assessing and planning for features such as ramps, accessible parking, and other accommodations to improve access for all visitors.

2. Website Accessibility Evaluation: We are in the process of evaluating and improving the accessibility of our website. Our goal is to ensure that all visitors, including those using assistive technologies, can navigate and interact with our online presence seamlessly.

3. Training and Awareness Building: We are investing in training our team members on how to effectively communicate with and assist individuals with diverse abilities. This training will enable us to provide better service and support to all our customers.

4. Seeking Community Feedback: We value input from our community. If you see something we can do better, please email us at create@ruthallen.com.au. Your feedback helps guide our efforts and ensures that we are addressing the most important accessibility needs within our studio.

5. Commitment to Continuous Improvement: Accessibility is an ongoing commitment, and we are dedicated to continuous improvement. We are exploring additional initiatives and technologies that will further enhance accessibility in our studio and beyond.

6. Building a Culture of Inclusivity: We are fostering a culture of inclusivity where everyone feels welcome and valued. Through education and awareness initiatives, we aim to raise understanding and advocate for accessibility both within our studio and in the wider community.

At Ruth Allen studio, we recognise that our journey towards accessibility is just beginning. We are committed to making meaningful progress and ensuring that our handblown glass experiences are accessible to all who wish to enjoy its beauty.
