It's great to see so many recommendations! Some of you might also remember
accessibility expert Léonie Watson who was an invited speaker at the MCG's
Spring 2014* event following recommendations from Bristol locals:
http://ljwatson.co.uk/
If this conversation has reminded you that you should check your sites and
apps but you can't afford a consultant, there are also online tools you can
use to find areas that need attention. What do people recommend these days?
Cheers, Mia
