I loved chatting with Bonnie Poole at MoTaCon. We caught up early on day 2 before it all got busy. Here's us in The Brighton Dome Corn Exchange.
We had a good old chit-chat about the importance of accessibility. I was pleased to hear the MoTaCon venue lived up to its high accessibility standards.
For us at MoT and the MoTaverse, accessibility it's an axiom. This is a community for everyone.
