What Our Clients Are Saying

“When we started on this journey towards broader accessibility, we had a lot to learn. We thought first of visible physical disabilities amongst our patrons. Our first projects involved lifts and ramps. The need for hearing assist technologies is massive, in all public facilities, not just cultural. Our average patron is 50+ and many have hearing challenges. There isn’t another area of accessibility improvement we could embrace that will impact more of our patrons. Janine and her team facilitated our project in so many ways, from needs assessment to education to securing funding to installation. Now that the technology is in place, she and the team will help us introduce it to our community. The collaboration with Accessible Hearing Solutions was instrumental in bringing this vision to life. The company provided not only the technology but also comprehensive training for staff, ensuring they can assist patrons in making the most of the hearing loops and assistive listening technology. This partnership underscores the Pictou Cultural Hub’s broader mission to break down barriers and create a truly inclusive space for everyone.” — Troy Greencorn, deCoste Performing Arts Centre​
