Accessibility Is More Than Supporting Screenreaders
by Seren Davies
Seren
All too often we think about accessibility as just meeting the needs of those who rely on screenreaders, but it's a far wider issue than that! In this talk, Seren will explore how people with cognitive, physical, hearing and sight difficulties experience the web, and how the decisions we make affect their experience.
