Support offered	We welcome access riders or informal conversations about your access needs and will make reasonable adjustments to support these where possible. We are open to artists coming on residency with support workers or chosen allies/companions to support their participation in the residency and will accommodate this when we can. We recognise that many artists have caregiving responsibilities and will welcome artists with their families (chosen/biological), or with those for whom they have caregiving responsibilities for, where possible. We have a skilled and expert team at SSW who are available for technical and curatorial support.
