Take a look at our Improving Accessibility booklet - helping you to help us.
Our WES online team have designed this booklet which is full of free business advice to make places in the community more accessible.

“I have had cafe staff gossip about me and use #ableist words when they think I can’t hear them.” Did you know that 75 per cent of #disabled people have left an establishment because it was #inaccessible? Watch this to help businesses recoup their losses 💸https://t.co/jT9uERu3rU

Hi everyone, the Warwickshire Empowerment Service (which ran Made for Me) ended last week 😞 but we will be keeping this page running so that you can look back on old tweets if you ever need to!

Thank you all - from the M4M minions

If you're in Stratford upon Avon and fancy some FREE cake, pop along to @Escape_Arts between 1:30 - 4:30pm. With the assistance of @MadeForMeWES you'll also find out how small changes can ensure everyone has a warm welcome to all spaces.

There is always time for reflection. These are some of our online group's WES highlights. #MadeForMe

[Grapevine Coventry and Warwickshire @grapevinecandw]

Don't forget this is coming up next week! #GetInvolved
The @MadeForMeWES team would love to see you there to share how inaccessible spaces don't have to stay that way 👇 #Accessibility #Disability #SystemsChange

This can be really helpful for autistic candidates as well!

[Grapevine Coventry and Warwickshire @grapevinecandw]

Thanks for this @RossCalladine, our team and @MadeForMeWES campaigners will appreciate it! It seems #CakeForAll is a popular hashtag - really liking it when it genuinely means cake for ALL 🙌

When you use hashtags with multiple words and don't include capital letters screen readers get confused, and then so do people who use screen readers. A quick tip that can make a big difference #AccessibilityTipOfTheWeek

Going to throw this out there to @joelycett because we need a good egg with some clout to see the work that CYA are doing and give them some support and pointers

@1voice_voth Would you like us to email you with the alt text?

[Made For Me @MadeForMeWES]

One of our members, Anne Robinson has written a poem about how life feels like a lottery, have a read here:

[Made For Me @MadeForMeWES]

@1voice_voth Hi Anne. There is alt text, and my screen reader is able to read it. Could it be an issue with your twitter application?

[Made For Me @MadeForMeWES]

Don't overcomplicate things! If 3 words will do, don't use 20. This is helpful for everyone: it makes things more accessible for people who struggle to understand complicated language, and it's quicker and easier for others. It just makes sense.

Hey @richardearley and DavidMiles, we sent you a gift & an invite to work with us to make @facebookapp safer! Unfortunately, we haven't heard back from you so thought we'd take to social media to see if this reaches you, how about a cuppa?
