The arts and culture sector probably puts more effort and attention into accessibility and inclusivity than any other sector. Yet, despite best intentions, many venues and events still struggle to provide seamless access for all attendees, especially those with hidden disabilities. So we sat down with Craig Pryde, founder and CEO of Different Breed – a ticketing platform that's shaking up the way we approach to accessibility – to explore why there's still a gap between well-intentioned ideals and practical solutions that actually makes events more accessible.
In this enlightening conversation, Craig shares his personal journey from software engineer to accessibility solutions provider, and how his own experiences living with a stammer led him to create technology that's filling a critical gap in our industry. From the challenges faced by those with hidden disabilities to the power of lived experience in shaping inclusive solutions, this interview offers valuable insights for anyone involved in the arts and culture sector.
Join us as we explore how Different Breed is not just talking about accessibility, but actively creating practical solutions that are transforming the event experience for disabled attendees. Whether you're a venue manager, event organiser, or simply passionate about creating more inclusive cultural spaces, this conversation is sure to inspire and inform.
