What are access support services?

What can Access Support Provide?

Anyone experiencing physical disability, a mental health condition, neurodivergence or a long-term health condition can benefit from assistance to remove barriers they may face in work, accessing funding, or services. In many cases, funding is available to ensure artists can access a support worker.

Catherine has many years of experience as a trained note-taker and general access support worker, especially for arts and creative projects, and can provide:

​

- Note-taking 

- Interpreting ideas to write up answers 

- IT access support 

- Help to break down and structure grants, forms and criteria

- Explaining feedback and requirements

- Physical assistance in person, e.g supporting with travel 

​

This support may suit Arts Council England grant applicants or anyone requiring these services for creative or work projects. The support is entirely person-led and tailored to your needs. Please get in touch below with any questions. 

Multidisciplinary Artist

I am immensely grateful for Catherine’s generous support and guidance throughout the entire process of crafting my Research & Development (ACE) application. From the beginning, she explained the criteria clearly and guided me through each question systematically, ensuring the narrative flowed coherently. When I struggled to articulate my thoughts, she let me express myself through the stream of consciousness to make sense of my thinking process without pressure to formulate perfect sentences immediately. Her awareness of my need for slowness and breaking things down to avoid feelings of overwhelmedness deepened my trust and enhanced my confidence. She stepped in with great sensitivity and patience to help me develop ideas concisely and purposefully. Her support in crafting my budget was also invaluable since it was my first time encountering such a process. I greatly appreciate her critical thinking and writing skills and knowledge around funding to fit my project's vision, and encourage me to dream big. I highly recommend Catherine to anyone in need of similar support.  I look forward to working with her in the future
