Welcome to the Association for Science and Discovery Centre’s Accessibility Unlocked event!

This event is dedicated to making small changes for a big impact - everyone, no matter where they are placed within an organisation - can make a difference to accessibility. The foundational mission of all science and discovery centres and museums is to share science with everyone. As organisations built on outreach, providing accessible spaces, programmes and opportunities to engage with STEM is vital for us to achieve this mission.

We welcome ASDC members and non-members to this event, with ticket options for everyone. To register for the event, visit: https://www.sciencecentres.org.uk/events/accessibility-unlocked/

A picture is worth a thousand words. On social media visual content is highly favoured for that very reason - users decide within seconds if they are going to engage or scroll past. Join in for a discussion on why thought through alternative text can improve access for all users. How to get it right? What should we say, and what shouldn't we say? It's always best to try and get it wrong, than not try at all.
