Call Out: All In Advisory Group

All In is a new access scheme in development in the UK and Ireland to improve accessibility in arts, creativity and culture for people who identify as D/deaf, people who have a disability, and/or people who are neurodivergent.

All In is being developed by people with disabilities for people with disabilities, who want to help creative and cultural organisations improve access, remove barriers and welcome more people with access requirements through their doors. This includes theatres, museums, galleries, festivals, libraries and more.

All In is a partnership between Arts Council England, Arts Council of Northern Ireland, Arts Council of Wales, and Creative Scotland, and as of October 2024, the Arts Council of Ireland is joining as a founding partner to extend the project to cover all of Ireland in its remit.

This project is, and will continue to be, disabled-led and inclusive, reflecting the needs of the groups they seek to serve. For more information contact allin@artscouncil.ie

All In have issued a call out for Expressions of Interest to become a member of the UK and Ireland All In Advisory Group. They are looking for two representatives to sit on an Advisory Group for this ground-breaking new access scheme in Ireland and the UK.

To date, the All In Advisory Group has supported the development of this scheme by bringing lived experience and sector expertise to the decision-making process for the UK wide access scheme. Given that Ireland is now joining this scheme and will be contributing to that development process, they want to recruit two Irish based representatives to sit on this important Advisory Group and offer new perspectives from Ireland to the team.

As this project is disabled-led, they are only accepting applications from people who identify as someone who is D/deaf, has a disability, people who are neurodivergent, and/or who have a long-term condition. In this instance they are looking specifically for people with disabilities who live in the Republic of Ireland.

This is a remunerated role. The closing date for receipt of applications is Tuesday 12 November 2024.
