The nature of the Media Access Charitable Trust (trading as Able) is to work towards an Aotearoa New Zealand where everyone has equal access to audiovisual media. Our core purpose is to serve the 880,000+ members of the Deaf or hard of hearing community; the 180,000+ people who are blind or have low vision, and those who rely on captions to help improve literacy or navigate English as a second language. Our mission is how we’re achieving our vision; through our work as Aotearoa New Zealand’s leading provider of captions, subtitles and audio description. Able provides these services for free-to-air television (TVNZ 1, TVNZ 2, TVNZ Duke, Three, Sky Open), digital platforms such as TVNZ+, ThreeNow, and RNZ, as well as for film, film festivals, government and television commercials.
