Access and Diversity

Acme is committed to the continued improvement of access and diversity in all its areas of operation, including service delivery, communication and publicity, staffing and management board. Acme uses ‘access and diversity’ to refer to cultural diversity, disability, age, socio-economic factors, gender and sexual orientation.

Studio Buildings

Acme is committed to ensuring that as many of our studio buildings as possible are physically accessible to users and the public. We have a commitment to making adaptations to studios, wherever practicable, to meet the specific needs of individual artists. We aim that all new-build studios not only meet the latest access requirements but exceed those guidelines and attempt to recognise that successful building design is driven by the people that use them. A responsive attitude to our users is therefore considered crucial. If necessary, when allocating studio space, we reserve the right to prioritise artists for whom a choice is limited as a result of their specific access needs.

Communications

Acme is committed to ensuring that our communications are accessible to all users. We use accessible design across our publications and our website. All our publications are available in alternative formats if required. We are committed to making all our publicity and information clear and easy to understand.

Contact

We welcome feedback on all aspects of our work and are particularly keen to learn ways we can improve our services to ensure accessibility to a wider user group. If you have any suggestions or questions about Acme’s commitment to access and diversity, please contact:
