About us
This group is for anyone interested in inclusive research, design and development practices. This includes accessible design and development, user research that involves people with disabilities in a holistic, integrated fashion as well as compliance with international standards such as the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines.
Through our meetup, we want to:
• Evangelise - increase awareness and understanding of accessibility and inclusive design
• Normalise - help everyone to build inclusive experiences so it's just 'normal'
• Simplify - communicate simply so that accessibility and inclusive design is easy to understand
• Support - bring people together so we can share, learn and support each other
If you would like to get involved or have any suggestions for our meetup, please contact the organising team.

Here’s how it works:

- Come to the meetup ready to chat — we’ll recap the talk, unpack the ideas together, and explore how they apply to our own work.
- Walk away with practical insights you can use right away.
This webinar looks at the core principles of Portable Document Format (PDF) accessibility including PDF/UA and WCAG, as well as strategies for developing accessible PDFs.
