Show Notes

This episode is a recording of a February 2026 WordPress Accessibility Meetup, brought to you by Equalize Digital. At this event, the UK Ministry of Justice Senior Accessibility Specialist Samantha Merrett walked everyone through what it really takes to create digital documents that are accessible in the real world, not just in theory. Instead of focusing only on rules or checklists, she shared practical tips that participants could start using right away, helping them better understand why document accessibility matters for both compliance and inclusion. WordPress Accessibility Meetups are a 100% free and virtual community resource that take place via Zoom webinars twice a month.
