Practical tips to engage stakeholders and create a culture of inclusivity, plus a bonus tip to keep your team motivated.

In Issue 37 of Access Denied, Gary thinks he doesn't need to worry about accessibility because they're not getting sued.

Working in accessibility is an uphill battle, but sometimes people can pleasantly surprise you. If you let them.

By using plain language you ensure everyone, regardless of their technical expertise, can understands the importance of web accessibility.
