The Disability Information and Resource Centre

Recently, Village Roadshow, Greater Union, Hoyts and Reading Cinemas applied for exemption from the Disability Discrimination Act for two and a half years.

If the exemption is granted, cinemas will only have to provide a minimal amount of captioning and audio description in only 105 out of 41,370 screenings per week.

If you wish to protest about this please see this template. Feel free to fill it out or modify it as you feel is appropriate.

Dignity for Disability will shortly be holding a protest rally to object to the lack of accessibility provisions for people with vision and hearing impairments in Australian cinemas.

When

11am Saturday 13th February

Where

The Piccadilly Cinema
181 O’Connell St
Nth Adelaide
