“Accessibility and Ideology: Making London More Inclusive”

Whilst tech is a big proprietor of social change, the greatest change can only happen when businesses of all fields adopt a more ‘inclusive’ attitude. Where organisations should be proud to work with local charities or individuals with a range of abilities to make their outputs more accessible to all, thus mutually benefitting everyone.
