We've created Audio Inclusive environmentsfor over 10,000 people.
“As Mayor of Hackney, I've always prided myself on our commitment to inclusion, but it wasn't until I learned about the impact of noise on the 30% of our community who are noise-sensitive that I realised we were failing them. Partnering with Sownd Affects is a step towards creating spaces that truly serve everyone - where people can feel welcome, comfortable, and valued.”
“Upgrading for Audio Inclusivity, we have had the best staff retention in 8 years! It's definitely something I'd apply to all venues & I'd recommend to other people to do it as well.”
“Audio Inclusivity was an important upgrade for us, because we want to provide an inclusive environment to our guests and our staff. Come and hear it for yourself!”
