Artists and opportunities
Jobs & opportunities
We want our jobs, opportunities and ways of working with us to be accessible to as many people as possible.
We provide Easy Read versions of information documents and job call-outs, designed to work with screen readers. We also offer different ways to apply, share feedback or express your interest, including written applications, video and voice notes.
Access support for residencies
We want our artist residencies to be accessible and inclusive, with working conditions that centre care, dignity and individual access needs.
We can provide support to reduce barriers to applying for and taking part in our residency opportunities. This includes up to £150 towards access support for the application process, such as working with a support worker, scribe or BSL interpreter. Access costs can also be included within residency applications where appropriate.
You don’t need to have everything worked out before you get in touch. If you have access needs or are unsure what support might be available, we’re happy to have a conversation.
Accessible information
Communications and media
Website
Our website is rated 96% on Web Accessibility Checkers. You can adapt the website by changing the settings to suit your needs, using the tool on the right-hand side of the page (marked with the orange icon). This tool includes functions such as adjusting the text size and colour contrast.
We are committed to regularly reviewing and updating our website to ensure all content is as accessible as possible, for example adding alternative text to images and using descriptive hyperlinks.
Promotional material
We caption all videos created by Fabric for our social media channels, our website and events. We also ensure all our promotional materials (flyers, posters etc.) use accessible font sizes and types, and are presented with suitable colour contrasts.
We welcome your feedback and views about the services provided and how they can be improved to suit your needs. Please share your positive experiences, queries, complaints or concerns with us at info@fabric.dance
