Welcome to Accessibility Nottingham
Thank you all for coming to our event.
It’s great to see you all getting involved in a meet-up that’s for everyone. If I start sounding like a preacher please tell me, I don’t want to put anyone off coming. But I will say, that we all gather together because we want to make a difference to the world and I truly believe that together we can.

What in the World is WordCamp?
As our intrepid team departed for WordCamp Brighton (17-18 August), we took a look at what the word on the street is about WordCamp.
The HeX team gets about a bit in terms of WordCamp. Only this year, James has spoken at Belfast, Boston (USA) and now Brighton – although we’re not tied to just the ‘B’ places, we’re off to NYC in September and might rock up at Manchester WordCamp in October.
