🫶 Making WordPress Accessible for Everyone

Join us for our first WordPress Sunshine Coast Meetup of 2025 as we dive into accessibility in WordPress with Claire Anderson, who specialises in building accessible websites for healthcare based businesses.

Accessibility isn't just a nice-to-have – it's essential for creating websites that everyone can use, regardless of their abilities. In this session, Claire will guide us through practical approaches to making WordPress sites more accessible, covering both the fundamentals and actionable strategies you can implement right away.

We'll explore topics like:

• Understanding WCAG guidelines and why they matter
• Built-in accessibility features in WordPress and block themes
• Common accessibility pitfalls (and how to avoid them)
• Testing tools and techniques to audit your sites
• Creating accessible content and navigation
• How accessibility improvements benefit SEO and user experience

Whether you're building sites for clients or managing your own, this session will give you the confidence and knowledge to create more inclusive digital experiences.

As usual, we will have plenty of time for questions, discussions and help with anything WordPress related after the presentation.

Look forward to seeing you there!
