Creative Diversity Network, TV Access Project launch studio accessibility review

Creative Diversity Network (CDN) and The TV Access Project (TAP) have announced a partnership on an initiative to review and improve the accessibility of studios and post-production facilities across the UK. 

The partnership will deliver and host a hub for post-production and studio facilities to complete an access description checklist.

These reviews can be shared by facilities on their websites and with the productions that are using their facilities, so that broadcasters, production companies and individuals contracted to work on content commissioned by TAP members can confirm that the facility has completed a review. 

Each company completing a review will also receive a certificate and will be added to the newly created, publicly available platform which will provide a regularly updated list of facilities that have completed the review.

TAP and CDN will be providing free training across the UK to support organisations to utilise the Access Description Checklist. 

The hub, checklist, and training details launched today (May 6).
