Join us on Wednesday 25th May, as we open your eyes and ears to accessibility.
17% of the country probably can’t use your website or engage properly with your brand.
They may be visually or hearing impaired; they may be colour blind; they may not be able to use a mouse; they may be neurodivergent. For 80% of those 11.6 million people, their disability will be invisible to others.
Accessibility is a legal requirement for public sector bodies. Whilst it’s not – or not yet – the case in the private sector, it makes good business sense to open your marketing activity to all, especially if you want customers to transact with you online.
What we will cover
In the session, we will go through:
• Accessible design, especially typefaces and colour contrast
• What areas to consider to make a website accessible
• How to audit your own website
