description
We are seeking to appoint an Access Consultant as part of a team to redevelop parts of our Gardens and Natural History Galleries. Total budget for the project, including fees but excluding VAT, is c£8.9m. The project is due for completion in early 2026 (dependent on the availability of funding) and is the next phase of a long-term strategic plan to widen and extend access, public facilities and increase exhibition space within the Horniman.
One of the core project objectives is to become more inclusive by widening our audience to better match the diversity of the London population. Over the past two years, extensive research and consultation with diverse audiences has told us that a love of nature and time spent in natural environments is a value we all share. It is essential therefore that the design and specification of all elements of the project meets high accessibility standards, as well as reducing our environmental impact and ensuring that all materials specified are either recycled and reused or obtained from environmentally sound and sustainable sources.
We are looking to commission an Access Consultant to help us develop and implement an access strategy / plan for the project. They will advise and support the development and delivery of the Nature + Love project, which must be accessible to the broadest possible audience, with a focus on inclusive design. We expect physical, sensory and intellectual barriers to be removed wherever possible and alternative routes to access provided where possible. All building, landscape and exhibition design should adhere to recognised accessibility guidelines, for example; British Standards BS 8300:2009 Design of buildings and their approaches to meet the needs of disabled people code of practise. All interpretation should incorporate current best practise guidance on accessibility.
