Visit California has introduced a dedicated trade and consumer resource designed to empower travellers with disabilities to explore the Golden State with ease and confidence, collaborating with advocate Sophie Morgan on an original YouTube series.

The new Accessibility Hub shares tools, tips and curated content aimed at making California more inclusive and navigable for all travellers.

To bring it to life, Visit California partnered with BAFTA Award-winning presenter and renowned disability advocate Sophie Morgan for a three-part road-trip series, Joy Diversion, available to watch on its YouTube channel.

The series offers an inspiring, unscripted look at the state’s diverse landscapes, from desert hideaways and alpine lakes to coastal towns and wine country, as experienced by Morgan, who recently moved to Los Angeles from the UK.

Morgan said: “Since moving to California, I’ve been blown away by how easy and joyful road tripping can be. This series is a reflection of that, it’s about celebrating movement, spontaneity and the joy of the open road.”

Visit California President & CEO Caroline Beteta said: “Road trips in California are all about travelling without compromise. There really is something for everyone, thanks to the state’s abundance of experiences and inclusive culture.”

“This Joy Diversion series – and Sophie’s storytelling –  brings to life everything that makes California the world’s ultimate playground.”
