UCC Accessibility Map

University College Cork aims to be an accessible campus. The organisers recognise that this is sometimes insufficient, though we strongly desire to make the event as welcoming to all as possible. We have checked to be sure that accessible toilet facilities and a lift are available within the building.

We have attempted to secure an ISL (Irish Sign Language) interpreter for the event, but university policy is to only provide such support if a registered attendee requires it. We understand that requiring people to ask means that the event is not, by default, accessible. It is our hope that at any future events, we will be able to convince UCC to change their policy. If you require ISL or other accessibility support, please let us know so that we can work with the University to accommodate you.

Note: this website was created with the help of the WP Accessibility plugin. If you discover a feature that is not working or is difficult to use, please notify the webmaster.
