Event Assistance

We work with you to make your event more accessible and enable people with disabilities and/or mobility challenges to participate, improving your visitor satisfaction and increasing attendance.

On average 1 person with mobility requirements attends an event with 2.5 other people.

Utilising trained and experienced staff and volunteers, we can provide services such as:

  • Motorised buggies to connect people from public transport, taxis or private parking, to event entry and exit points
  • Personal guidance (wheelchairs) to and from allocated seating and/or around the event
  • Mobility equipment hire, i.e. wheelchairs, electric scooters, walkers and strollers
    Personal care attendance for people with disabilities.

Events we have supported in the last year include:

  • the Australian Open
  • St Kilda Festival
  • The Australian Formula 1 GP
  • Melbourne International Flower and Garden Show
  • Moomba and Anzac Day.

Travellers Aid is a registered social enterprise certified with Social Traders and People + Planet First.
