Tottenham Hotspur integrate UK first audio description service

The three iconic player murals outside Tottenham Hotspur Stadium have become the first of their kind in the UK to include audio description (AD) services for visually impaired fans.

The Heung-Min Son, Harry Kane and Ledley King murals now feature QR codes linking to audio descriptions of the designs. The initiative has been led by the David Katz Foundation, a charity dedicated to supporting people with visual impairments, in partnership with MurWalls, the artists behind the murals.

The audio descriptions are voiced by Daniel Wynne, the Club’s own AD commentator on matchdays, and Chairman of the David Katz Foundation.

Match-going fans attending tomorrow’s game against Crystal Palace will be the first to enjoy the feature, with the fixture being dedicated to Level Playing Field’s ‘Unite for Access’ campaign. The campaign highlights the need to inspire and celebrate inclusion for supporters with access requirements at sports venues across the country.

Fans arriving early to the match tomorrow will be able to hear from representatives of MurWalls, as well as from SpursAbility, Spurs’ Disabled Supporters Association, about the importance of the initiative during a pitch side interview.
