How accessible is your content? In this one-hour webinar, the Digital Culture Network’s Tech Champion for websites, Roberta Beattie, guides you through how to make your online content accessible.
This webinar focuses on website content, and the principles of accessibility that cover all aspects of digital content, such as social media and PDF downloads.
Roberta explains what accessibility means when it comes to digital content, outlines best practices, and provides tips on creating an accessibility statement for your website.
Gary Lockton from YouAccess then walks us through their website accessibility tool, and Darren Smallman from Thames Festival Trust tells us about his journey with accessibility and their website.
