Whether you’re a newbie or an accessibility aficionado, our Access and Inclusion Advisory Committee has you covered with tips, tricks, and the occasional nudge to get your wheels turning. Because accessibility isn’t just a box to check—it’s a mindset, a culture, and, let's face it, the right thing to do. Tune in every Tuesday and let’s make inclusion the new normal. Don’t worry—we promise no boring jargon. Just practical, punchy, and (dare we say?) fun advice!

You can find all of the tips on the Access and Inclusion Advisory Committee webpage.

This week's tip:
Stay Cool and Plan Ahead

Hot weather can affect everyone differently. If you're heading outdoors, plan your activities during cooler parts of the day, bring water, wear sun protection, and identify shaded or air-conditioned locations along your route.

For people with mobility limitations, chronic health conditions or medications that affect temperature regulation, taking frequent breaks and monitoring energy levels can help prevent heat-related illness.

Accessibility is making sure everyone can safely enjoy summer.
