00:00Dr Osman, who has no sight in either eye, contacted the museum in July 2026 to ask whether audio-described
00:10tours would be available, according to the law firm Ley Day.
00:15The firm says the museum responded saying self-guided visits would be prioritised over programme tours and events because of
00:24restrictions on visitor numbers caused by the number of hours of light exposure permitted on the tapestry each week.
00:33On Wednesday, the museum said an in-person audio-described tour would be provided during the exhibition run and it
00:41is exploring including an audio-described tour on an app.
00:46Dr Osman from Croydon is seeking damages, a declaration that he has been discriminated against and an order requiring the
00:53museum to amend its policies and ensure relevant staff receive disability awareness training.
00:59A British museum spokesperson said the museum is committed to making the Bayou Trappestry exhibition as accessible as possible and
01:08has worked with specialist access consultants to inform the exhibition experience.
01:13Provisions include a sensory map to help visitors prepare for their visit, as well as dedicated tours during the exhibition
01:20run, which will include an in-person audio-described tour.
