So why is this important?
•Just under one in five Australians (18.5%) have a disability (ABS, 2011)
•A further 21% report a long-term health condition (ABS, 2011)
•And don’t forget, we all age as well…
Why accessibility?
•There’s compliance issues and legal considerations…
•Making a resource more accessible, makes it more accessible to everyone.
•An accessible mindset and approach is not as hard as you might think.
