Everyone loves the use of a good emoji. However, did you know that if they aren’t used in the correct way, they can cause cognitive overload for some users and become an accessibility nightmare for blind people or those with low vision? Similarly, as useful as hashtags are as an outreach tool, there are best practices to make sure they are inclusive for everyone to interact with.

Hyperlinks are found on every web page across the internet and are one of the most basic, yet most important, aspects of web accessibility.

What a first week it was for the Digital Accessibility Matters campaign! In case you missed any important inclusive considerations on our social media channels, here is some top advice and resources to help you to create accessible online content.

When considering accessibility, the first things to spring to mind are lifts, ramps, and accessible bathrooms. However, there is another element to accessibility that arguably impacts a greater number of people, but is often overlooked; digital accessibility.

We live in a world where digital accessibility is all around us, so it’s vital that this technology is accessible for everyone to interact with. This campaign strives to raise awareness on changes that need to be made in order to create an inclusive digital world.

The Digital Accessibility Matters campaign is now only a few days away. This important awareness raising campaign is gearing up to create inclusive lasting change across the digital world.
