Today I’m launching my new Social Media Accessibility Campaign, #AssessYourAccess! For the next week my social media channels will have top tips, educational videos and graphics, quotes from young people and much more. Make sure to share with your friends and colleagues.

Making accessible content is so important and so easy to do. I wanted to hear how it effects young people in Scotland. Here are some words from a young person from Kilsyth about their experience. #AssessYourAccess #SocialMediaAccessibility

How do I use CamelCase to ensure my social media content is accessible? It’s simple! Just make sure to use a capital letter at the start of each word in your hashtag. There is an example in this graphic. ⬇️ #AssessYourAccess #CamelCase

Day 3 of #AssessYourAccess. To find out a little bit more about accessibility and what that actually means, how do we put it into practice and who does it help? - I’ve put together this short summarised video. Give it a watch and share with your friends and colleagues!

It takes a couple of minutes at most to add before you post. This is why I always go on about ALT text and how easy it is to make your social media content accessible! Don’t forget to #AssessYourAccess.

Heard about ALT text but aren’t quite sure how to add it? Here is some short suggestions that will help you to understand it better! It is important that if you are posting graphics that you add the text displayed in it. #AssessYourAccess #ALTtext
