Step Two

WHY DOES SOCIAL MEDIA ACCESSIBILITY MATTER?

In the UK, there are approximately 14 million people with some form of disability which makes up around 20% of the UK population.

With an annual spending power of £274 billion ($13 trillion worldwide), very few organisations operate using accessible marketing practices, meaning 20% of the UK population are being excluded from accessing products and services online.

Looking to turn a negative into a positive, our social media accessibility workshop has been designed to help organisations to improve their digital accessibility to generate greater growth online.

We hope you will find our course useful. More courses will be added over the coming months, so please do bookmark our page or subscribe to our mailing list which can be accessed here.

If you have any questions, then please do not hesitate to reach out to me.

Keep blooming!

Outside of work I am a keen gardener – when I am not pottering around in my back garden or allotment I can be found mucking out poorly and injured British hedgehogs in rescues across Yorkshire!

what others are saying about the workshop

"Ellen's social media accessibility course has been a great investment for our charity. The course has helped our team regardless of their technological ability to improve our social media communications for the better. As a result of practicing social media accessibility, we are now seeing more disabled volunteers coming forward to support the vulnerable teenagers that we work this. This is a great result and is helping us to diversify our volunteer database."

"I learnt from the accessibility session on what I could do to make the webs more inclusive. Everything Ellen shared was backed up with statistics, references, as well as real-life video and audio examples. I came away with some great ideas and solutions to further develop the business for the better. Thank you."

"It was a breath of fresh air attending a course run by someone with lived experience of disability. The course taught me things that I should have known and helped me to understand how inaccessibility impacts other disability groups. Since the course, I have been working with the staff team to include accessibility within every area of the business, including our recruitment processes for which we finding more disabled people are applying for via our social channels. Our aim next is to apply for disability confident status. I have no hesitation in recommend this course to anything, it has really helped me to up my accessibility game."
