The Hall hosted a lively event on 30 June where 22 iT4Communities volunteers gathered to attend a workshop about Website Accessibility, led by iT4C Hub partner, AbilityNet.
Some of Our VolunteersThe session was a 3-hour round up about how to ensure the websites the volunteers are building are accessible to as many of the population as possible, taking into consideration a range of possible difficulties with sight, motor skills and general awareness of the way people wish to use the Internet.
The response was extremely positive with over 25% of people finding it ‘exceptional’ and 100% rating it highly.
iT4C are now taking this training ‘on the road’ to reach our many volunteers who are not based in London. More information about this will be available on the iT4C website but meanwhile please contact Tam Williams e: tam@wcit.org.uk
