Presentations and Celebrations
2023
Nimbus Disability Nimbus Disability board chair Steve Rigby, Deputy Lord-Lieutenant Tony Walker, Martin Austin and Lord-Lieutenant Mrs Elizabeth Fothergill CBE are pictured (left to right) at The Queen’s Award for Innovation Grant of Approval presentation to the Derby-based social enterprise in recognition of the Access Card. Held by more than 100,000 people with disabilities in the UK, the Access Card has vastly improved access for disabled people at events and venues both at home and abroad. Powered by ‘NOS’, Nimbus Disability’s bespoke software, the Access Card system translates its holder’s disability/impairment/access requirements into symbols highlighting the barriers they face. When booking tickets online, the Nimbus Operating System informs providers quickly and discreetly about the access requirements that individuals need without sharing further information about them with the venue.
