♿ Introducing Our Accessibility Ambassador Programme

Accessibility is not a one-off project — it’s an ongoing journey.

That’s why Cool Access Consultancy has launched our new Accessibility Ambassador Programme.

As your Accessibility Ambassador, we work alongside your organisation throughout the year, providing lived-experience insight, practical feedback, and ongoing support to help create genuinely accessible environments.

✅ Accessibility walkthroughs
✅ User-led feedback
✅ Changing Places reviews
✅ Ongoing accessibility advice
✅ Support for accessibility improvements

Led by lived experience, we help organisations identify real-world barriers that can be missed by traditional compliance checks.

Whether you’re an airport, hotel, visitor attraction, transport operator, shopping centre, healthcare provider, or public venue, we can help you create a more inclusive experience for everyone.

Because accessibility is about more than compliance, it’s about dignity, confidence, and belonging.

♿ What is Part M – and who does it apply to?

Part M of the Building Regulations sets the legal baseline for accessibility in buildings. It affects new developments, refurbishments, changes of use, and homes, yet it’s still misunderstood and often treated as a tick‑box exercise.

At Cool Access Consultancy, we help clients get Part M right , and go beyond minimum compliance to create inclusive spaces that actually work for people.

✅ Clear, practical Part M advice�✅ Real‑world access insight�✅ Support at design, planning, and audit stages�✅ Expertise in inclusive design and Changing Places provision

Good access is not optional. It’s essential.
