Thanks to funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund, CEDA and Access All Aerials created a series of podcasts looking back at the History and Heritage of the South West, and in particular how disability access is being considered by local attractions and facilities whilst maintaining their rich heritage.
On this special page, we share some of the podcast highlights, episodes and memories from the many trips and public events CEDA held over 2022/ 2023.
A Legacy Project
One of the lasting legacies of the DASH Podcast Series is a fantastic new local history radio show broadcast on Access All Aerials. Listen back to one of the latest episodes below or find more on the ReplAAAy service.
The Series
Access All Aerials worked with CEDA and their members to produce a series of six podcasts looking at different regions of the South West. Each podcast features CEDA members talking about their experiences visiting different attractions and popular locations in each area highlighting good accessibility and speaking with those people who are having to maintain the history and heritage of the south west whilst making their location as accessible as possible.
