@IAAPOrg Hi, I'm trying to join the IAAP as a member but the submit form doesn't seem to be working (the button at the end of the form, nothing happens), please can you help?

[Gemma Sweeney @gemmasweeneyUX]

@simonhurstux It sucks. I highly recommend walking groups 💚

@A11YProject @iainmbean This is an excellent guide!

ICYMI: @314UXHolly explains that when a touch target is too small she may not be able to complete a task because she doesn’t have the fine motor control to tap her finger on the right area of the screen.

@StandonCalling @penderi You need to open another exit if there is one.

[Gemma Sweeney @gemmasweeneyUX]

@StandonCalling Is there still food on site? Starving in the car waiting for an hour in the queue to get out.

Lockdown turned back the clock for disabled shoppers. https://t.co/86OwEbHoNQ

If you’re new to accessibility then it can seem daunting. But there is so much we can do that does not need deep technical expertise. Do not let perfection be the enemy of good.

[Accessibility London @A11yLondon]

Most of us will live long enough to experience disability. Pass it on.

[Gemma Sweeney @gemmasweeneyUX]

@petervangrieken @A11yLondon @trinefalbe @MRocioCalvo Wow thank you! 🎉😊

[Gemma Sweeney @gemmasweeneyUX]

This has to be my favourite of the @A11yLondon talks I've watched recently! @CeriScope on how they embedded a culture of accessibility and inclusive design. https://t.co/4TyYOLU41f #accessibility #a11y

@o_dafydd Thanks, appreciate it! I'm sure I'll have a few questions once I start delving into these links a bit more.

[Gemma Sweeney @gemmasweeneyUX]

@o_dafydd Hi Dafydd, thanks for the talk yesterday, I found it really useful :) You made a reference to using inclusive components and there was a link in the slide but I didn't manage to grab it - was it this one? https://t.co/jKFD9FZ8UC
