Access and Creative Principles Toolkit Co-ordinator

Lung Ha Theatre Company recently launched the first edition of our Access and Creative Principles Toolkit – a resource for individuals and organisations with guidance on working with learning-disabled adults. Drawn from over 40 years of experience in making theatre performances with learning disabled actors, and from research with members of our current ensemble, the toolkit aims to create inclusive work environments for disabled and non-disabled people, in creative and practical ways. For more information, please see our website: https://www.lungha.com/project/toolkit/

We are now looking for someone to work with us to roll out the toolkit more widely, and to embed this strand of work into how we share our expertise with the sector and wider communities.
