Accessibility Forum, Manchester

Accessibility is an area that all too often becomes an afterthought when it comes to building digital products. But with the European Accessibility Act 2025 fast approaching, businesses are needing to act fast to ensure their apps and websites will be compliant with new guidelines.

These looming changes aim to improve access to essential digital and electronic facilities for the 135 million people living with disabilities in Europe - including mobile apps.

So what does this mean for companies and their mobile users?

We’re gathering a panel of design, development and product experts to share their experiences, insights and advice on how best to prepare for the upcoming changes, and how to shift attitudes towards accessibility across your organisation.

Meet the speakers:

• Lucie Farrington, Senior User Researcher, Apadmi
• Dr Elizabeth Blakelock, Accessibility and Inclusion Manager, Monzo
• James Martin, Lead Designer & Engineer, Co-op Insurance
• Maya Sellon, Inclusive Design & Digital Accessibility Principal, Shell
• Ronise Nepomuceno, Digital Accessibility Manager, BT

Join us for an honest and open discussion around accessibility with the chance to connect with industry peers to share experiences and ideas.

To keep our events of value, we respectfully ask agencies, vendors and recruiters to refrain from registering. If you work for a brand or business, you're in!
