This is fantastic ~ Disabled writers are seriously under-represented in the #creative industries, so to reduce #access barriers for freelance #writers in broadcasting, film, theatre, publishing and the videogames industry, Writers’ Guild of Great Britain (WGGB) has launched a#WritersAccessRider
Screenwriter Sukey Venables-Fisher, who helped to develop it said: ‘The #WGGB access rider and guidance helps to level the playing field for #disabled writers. By making it clear to producers what adjustments are needed, we can ensure that writers with disabilities are not disadvantaged when working in the industry.’ https://writersguild.org.uk/access-rider/
