🌍 Today is Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD) — a reminder that digital accessibility matters for everyone.

Accessible websites, apps, and online services help ensure that all people, including those with disabilities, can access information, communicate, and stay connected. 💙

At Doncaster North-West Primary Care Network, we support creating inclusive digital spaces that are easy to use, understand, and access for all.

✨ Small changes can make a big difference:
✔️ Use clear language
✔️ Add captions to videos
✔️ Ensure good colour contrast
✔️ Make online content screen-reader friendly

Together, we can help build a more inclusive digital world.
