Creating accessible environments for disabled people

When organising a meeting or event, we consider each of the following:

• Use of an accessible venue when meetings are in person.
• For virtual meetings, the chair of the meeting can use digital accessibility features
• For hybrid meetings, we ensure technology is compatible with the access solutions someone is using. For example, Roger Pens used in a physical space may pick up sound from the virtual space.
• We share meeting information in an accessible way and consider meeting etiquette. For example, it might help some disabled people to have short breaks in a long meeting. Or some people might prefer communicating using the chat function in virtual or hybrid meetings.
