Strawberry Field, the iconic site managed by The Salvation Army and immortalised by John Lennon and the Beatles, is a visitor attraction at the heart of Liverpool tourism. The centre offers an authentic experience with a strong commitment to responsible tourism running central to every aspect of its operation. 

In addition to our commercial offerings of a Visitor Exhibition, Imagine More Café, gift shop and beautifully designed gardens, the centre is also home to the Steps to Work Programmes, a set of initiatives for members of the community who have learning difficulties or who face barriers to work, providing them with valuable support and opportunities for meaningful employment.

The site also hosts the Fresh Expression Team, who run a number of groups and activities to engage and uplift the local community, including those with additional support needs. We pride ourselves on being an inclusive and accessible venue and we are seeking support to further enhance our accessibility by offering visitors the opportunity to take a virtual tour of the centre before their visit.

Duties and responsibilities
We are continually seeking ways to enhance our facilities and visitor experience. To support this ongoing commitment, we are planning to create a virtual tour of Strawberry Field to feature on our website, with a particular focus on accessibility for individuals with mobility issues but will also consider the support needs of all visitors.

 
The video would ideally cover: 
  • Arrival as a pedestrian (e.g. from a nearby bus stop)
  • Arrival by car (including accessible parking features)
  • Ticket purchase and entry into the visitor exhibition 
  • Garden tour (including access via ramps/lifts, bandstand, and rose garden)
  • The café
  • The shop
  • Accessible toilet facilities
We thought this could be a great opportunity for a group of students to get involved in filming and producing the video.
