Inclusion isn’t just good practice – it’s good business. The Realistic RACE is a hands-on, team-based workshop designed to build empathy, spark conversation and give your team a fresh perspective on accessibility.
Inspired by The Amazing Race and led by people with lived experience of disability, participants work together to complete real-world challenges using mobility aids like wheelchairs, walkers, blindfolds and more.
It’s a fun, eye-opening way to strengthen teamwork, improve customer service and learn practical insights that help create more inclusive workplaces, services and communities.

What is the Realistic RACE?
The Realistic RACE is a three-hour challenge led by people with lived experience of disability.
In teams, participants take on fun, thought-provoking tasks while navigating access barriers using mobility aids like wheelchairs, crutches, walkers, blindfolds and noise-cancelling headphones.
This experience sparks meaningful conversations and builds understanding around customer service, inclusive hiring, community engagement and better design of workplaces, services and spaces.
