Matt Overd

School holidays are starting then!

@MendoncaPen @culturalinc_cic Great chatting with you. Really interested in your ideas on using art and illustrations to make walk information more accessible.

@MattOverd @culturalinc_cic Thanks Matt, great hearing about the work you are doing to improve access to nature

@MendoncaPen summing up the @culturalinc_cic conference with the help of her stunning artwork

Yes, Stephen never fails to move minds or hearts or both. The power of the arts in storytelling especially with the experience of children and parents in those stories.

And that’s it for the 2024 @culturalinc_cic conference. Notes and videos to come. See you all next year!

@anitakntweets and Isaac reflect on the sessions at @culturalinc_cic . Lots to learn from and take away. So much progress has been made on access to the arts. Thank you @RoyalAlbertHall for hosting a lovely day.

Young people share their experiences of accessing arts @culturalinc_cic conference.

Ayzah from @graeae sharing experiences of access to work @culturalinc_cic conference, what employers can do for access for disabled people - new ideas and proper funding will help disabled people to dream about their futures, and her vision for an ideal accessible arts venue

Thank you for getting us all moving DJ, from @CoraliDanceComp at @culturalinc_cic conference

Venues, galleries and museums sharing the things they do to create safe, inclusive, accessible and awesome experiences at the @culturalinc_cic conference

@culturalinc_cic conference if you can see it you can be it, reflects @anitakntweets

‘A local zoo brought animals into the school. When the children visited the zoo it was the same staff’

Parents and teachers experiences of access and inclusion @culturalinc_cic conference ‘Everyone wants inclusion, until the behaviour kicks in’ , ‘just give me the basics, why is everything so complicated’, ‘consultation!’, ‘access should be built in, not an after thought.’

Stunningly thought provoking opener at the @culturalinc_cic conference from @RoseUnwin about his dramatisation of the horrific treatment of learning disabled people through his play Laughing Boy

Lots to catch up on and look forward to in our August newsletter. Articles you may have missed, news from the walking world, walks and festivals. Also introducing One Mile Walks, our new programme being launched later this year. Happy walking walkingpace.uk/newsletters/

Latest article on @walking_pace_uk about getting into long distance walking and a great route from @Scholes1Ron to get you going. The South Pennine Triangle.

Over 40 ways that #walking is magic. My blog for @walking_pace_uk on why walking is good for you. But also on why maybe it shouldn’t matter that it is. walkingpace.uk/walking-is-mag…

Great to hear @steph_wetherell and Every Body Outdoors on @BBCRadio4 Ramblings. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…
