    Training and Consultancy in Disability. Board member.

    I’ve been in Edinburgh delivering training ready for registration of shows for the Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society, on behalf of Creative Access. Great group, highly engaged, good knowledge and lots of questions so we could do ‘deep’. Plus we got to talk about all things Edinburgh Fringe which is fab. Venue was the Scottish Story Telling Centre which was full of interesting books and helpful people. My train doesn’t get back til quite late but that’s about the only downer on the day.

Behind him a projector screen showing a slide which has Edinburgh festival fringe society assisting deal disabled and neurodiverse customers 10 February 2025 and the logos of the Fringe and creative access.
