A11y North at Channel 4 for GAAD
21 May 2026
The excellent meetup A11y North was at the new Leeds headquarters of Channel 4 for Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD).
An awesome panel discussed all things accessibility and I’ll collect my notes and share my thoughts. I had to have a picture stood in front of the channel 4 countdown clock from the TV quiz. Being a fan of the original and the 8 out of 10 cats version it was a lovely surprise to see it in the room.
