I'm working on a research plan for conducting remote research with deaf and non-speaking people I need someone to help translate written instructions into British Sign Language. Does anyone know someone who could help? Happy to pay for this translation work 💸💸 #a11y

Help shape a UK Gov National Strategy for Disabled People. Share your life experiences either from that as a disabled person, a carer or parent or as someone who has an interest in disability issues. The survey is open until 23 April 2021. disabilityunit.citizenspace.com/cabinet-office…

If you weren't able to join us tonight, Gareths talk is on YouTube. It was great, so it's an ideal way to spend 30 minutes with a cuppa #a11yUK

A really important question asked at #A11yUK about how accessibility and intersectionality are related. Disabled people aren't just disabled, and we need to consider race, gender, sexuality and socioeconomic status as well.

Change the culture of your company to one that values accessibility. Train your developers. Teach employees how to produce accessible docs. Make sure your social team knows about alt text and captions. Make access an expectation but give employees the resources to succeed. #GAAD
