Images of the beautiful Alpine region in summer, sun shining through the trees, a sign reads "Bright".
Macca rolls into a cafe, grabs a coffee and puts in his sugar. He looks straight at us.

"The numbers are in people."
Images of the cafe flash by, glasses on the coffee machine, wine bottles on the shelf.
Macca relaxes and sips his coffee. He eyeballs us again.

"Do your maths."
Flashes of stacks of coffee cups and the menu board. Macca stirs his coffee and looks up at us.
"Twenty percent of people have a disability in Australia."
Another guy at the cafe dips his teabag in his cup with his good hand, his other is in a sling. Macca looks at us.
"That figure jumps to thirty-five percent when you include people with temporary disabilities."
Two guys walk into the cafe, one is in a wheelchair the other walks behind, they look for a table. Macca says:
"Accessibility is about opening doors for all people."
Two older people sit at a table, they are reading the newspaper.
"Our seniors with mobility issues."
A family sits at an outside table, a woman plays with a very young child.
"Our families with little ones."
Macca pays for his coffee.
"We can all be Alpine Adventurers."
Macca looks at us.
"It's up to you."
Images of sun shining on the mountain, and fade to black.

The Alpine Accessibility Toolkit is designed for tourism providers in the Alpine region. Its aim is to support and encourage increased access to the region by all tourists, 30% of whom have access requirements.
