About Accessible Action

Approach

Accessible Action is led by Amanda Lawrie Jones, a recognised access and inclusion leader whose work has influenced policy, practice and systems change across government, transport, aviation and community sectors for more than 20 years. 

Amanda’s work is firmly grounded in the social model of disability, recognising that barriers are created by systems, environments and attitudes.

Accessible Action brings together:

  • Lived experience of disability 
  • Lived expertise applying that experience to complex systems 
  • Deep understanding of policy, legislation and standards 
  • Extensive experience providing senior‑level advice 

Amanda is also a highly regarded public speaker and facilitator, using speaking engagements to influence thinking, challenge assumptions and build organisational capability. Speaking is a key way Accessible Action engages leaders and organisations in meaningful conversations about disability, systems and responsibility for change. 

This combination enables Accessible Action to move organisations beyond awareness and compliance toward strategic, system‑level access and inclusion outcomes.
