EEDI Objectives:

1. For the venue to be as accessible as possible.

The venue is accessible, the hall and accessible toilet is on the ground floor and lifts are available to other floors where further accessible toilets are available. These are clearly sign-posted, and we include this in our introduction at the beginning of the day to ensure anybody with a sight impairment is aware too. There is a prayer room available on the ground floor too. The venue is 2 blocks from the nearest bus and rail station and has taxis available if required. It is also near a low-cost hotel.

The room is large enough to accommodate those that need to stand or move around.

The speakers are on a stage so they can be easily seen by the audience. They are briefed that if there is an open mic or question time, that a roving microphone will be given to the participant so that all can hear their comment or question. The presenter will also be asked to repeat what they have said. It has a hearing loop if required.

On applying for a ticket, participants will be asked if they have any EEDI specific needs we can address and we will enter into a dialogue pre-the event, if the needs arise.

Any support workers required will be offered free spaces and will receive lunch and beverages.

On arrival, there will be board members that meet and greet and will sign-post the attenders. Anyone who has identified their EEDI requests, will be acknowledged, but not separated from the audience.

2. For materials used to be as accessible as possible.

We will ask the presenters for their slides and handouts in advance so that we can send out to those that would require them in advance. We will consider alternative ways of presenting according to needs that arise, or any that are notified to us in advance.

3. For the event to be open to a diverse range.

We are willing to consider cost implications and offer free spaces to local charities who are providing EMDR to our local communities.

4. To consider EEDI needs.

An EEDI feedback question is included in the Evaluation Form so that we can continue to learn and develop in meeting those needs.

The members will be informed that we have an EEDI Lead - Claire Pooley, who can be contacted via emdrsussex@gmail.com
