The Nimbus Disability team at the 2025 UK Tech Awards holding their Tech for Good award

Nimbus Disability, a social enterprise founded and led by disabled people, has been announced as the winner of the Tech for Good award at the 2025 UK Tech Awards.

The Tech for Good award recognises companies that have harnessed the power of technology to deliver beneficial social, cultural, or environmental outcomes, acknowledging non-financial contributions to society alongside commercial value.

Nimbus secured the win for its "Access Card" scheme, a digital tool designed to improve the lives of disabled people at scale.

Martin Austin, Managing Director, Founder of Nimbus Disability and Creator of the Access Card said of the award: “We are absolutely humbled by this recognition in what we’ve worked so hard to build. The platform we’ve developed over the years now allows us to process around 3,000 applications from disabled people per day and is used by 2,500 venues to enable over 5 million visits, experiences and memories for disabled people and their families each and every year.

“This award means so much to us as it’s judged by our peers in the Social Enterprise Movement - a movement we could not be more proud to be even a small part of, so winning this award feels truly exceptional.”

The Access Card translates verified access requirements into a system of symbols recognised by venues, festivals, and ticketing providers across the UK and internationally.

The technology allows users to communicate their access needs just once, enabling businesses to adapt their services accordingly.

It is designed to foster systemic inclusion and remove barriers at the earliest point of customer interaction.

As a social enterprise, Nimbus’s model ensures all revenue is reinvested into disability-led innovation or donated to their linked charity, Disability Direct.
