Show Notes
This years Celtic Connections festival in Glasgow revolutionized accessibility for visually impaired visitors. Sight Loss Councils Scotland led the first training program in the country, teaching staff about inclusion and sighted guiding. The program, focused on real lived experiences, was put to the test during the festival, proving that small changes can make a big difference. The initiative was a game-changer for staff confidence and created real connections. It even included exclusive behind-the-scenes access to world champion piper Ross Miller from the Red Hot Chilli Pipers. The councils aim to spread this nationwide, ensuring live music is inclusive for all.
