The organisation also runs community services for young people with disabilities, alongside accessible transcription through All Formats, including Braille, large print and audio production. Its facilities can be hired for meetings, training sessions and community events, from small meeting rooms for up to 12 people to larger halls accommodating up to 200 guests. Courses support learners with disabilities while related services extend QAC’s work beyond college study.
