Suzie Simons (Eye Matter’s founder) announced in Eye Matter Matter’s issue 28,
‘As a result of Eye Matter’s involvement with this exhibition the organisers of ‘Frameless’ have received an award for their accessibility provisions.
This was shared by Elle Andrews, the Learning & Access Programme Manager for Frameless:
It’s been an absolute pleasure working with Suzie and Eye Matter over the past couple of years. Suzie has clearly cultivated a strong and supportive sense of community within the organisation, and it’s always a joy to welcome her group.
We’re consistently impressed by the incredible turnout for our Audio Described tours when Eye Matter visits. Suzie takes great care to consider the needs of every individual—participants, companions, and the group as a whole. Her thoughtful approach extends to every detail, including the arrangement of furniture to help reinforce a sense of inclusion and connection during events.
We were especially honoured when Suzie wrote a statement on behalf of Eye Matter in support of our nomination for the 2025 Blue Badge Award for Most Accessible Venue. Her kind words and endorsement played a key role in helping us secure the award, and we were both delighted and humbled by her support.
Her ongoing commitment to accessibility and creating meaningful shared experiences is both inspiring and deeply appreciated by our team.
Hope to have Eye Matter back soon!’
