OpenUK London Hybrid #22: Accessible Open Source #A11y (virtual signup)

Wednesday 19th March is our next meetup. How can we make a more accessible, inclusive and welcoming open source world? Are there open source tools that can make a more inclusive and accessible internet?

This maintains a Hybrid event but we have separate signups now to limit no-shows at the in-person one. This is for the Online event, which will remain open until the day of. There is a separate link if you commit to joining us in London. The link for the online version of this event will be added about a week before, so please check back.
