Did you know around 20% of the population live with a disability? Yet despite this, much of the content we create online still isn’t fully accessible. Whether it's a newsletter that’s isn’t screen reader friendly, or a social media post without alt text, many people can be unintentionally excluded from your charity’s messaging due to inaccessible content.
In this practical workshop, we’ll (Media Trust) show you how to create simpler, clearer, and more accessible content for your charity. Key topics will include ensuring proper colour contrast, understanding the pitfalls with digital documents, writing in plain English, and optimising your content for ultimately readability. You’ll also gain insights into how small changes can make a significant difference in accessibility and usability, enabling more people to engage with your message.
Remember, creating accessible content is an ongoing commitment! This workshop is designed for beginners, focusing on simple, practical steps you can take right now to make a big difference. There is no one-time fix for accessibility. Rather, it's about gradual improvements that help your charity create content that enables people rather than disables.
