If your organisation is getting a shiny new website for Christmas, don't forget to ensure it's user tested to make sure it's accessible, no matter what device or software someone may use: https://t.co/cWVzjI6UWd

In fact, this is something that should be checked regularly.

@ShawTrusta11y @verge How much do we rely on mobile phones to manage our lives? Imagine if it wasn’t possible🤔 For many people that’s what life is like! Why are organisations not realising they are loosing out on customers & revenue by just simply making their websites and mobile apps accessible
