”Ettie is an excellent trainer, who makes light work of tackling complex subjects – in fact, she makes it a thoroughly enjoyable experience! At the training session she skilfully managed to strike the perfect balance between challenging us and holding a safe space. She used brilliant interactive exercises which then prompted rich discussions; during which she managed to ensure everyone was involved without it ever feeling forced. This was a day-long training session and it felt like just a few hours because it was so engaging and inspiring. I think everyone should take this training - it's essential for the voluntary sector but also the wider community.”

Keynote by Ettie Bailey-King:

Neurodivergence and neuroinclusive communication

At least one in five people is neurodivergent and likely many more. Yet too often, organizations invest heavily in creating content that unintentionally excludes this significant audience. From ADHD and autism to dyslexia, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, OCD, and Tourette’s, neurodivergent identities are diverse, and they profoundly shape attention, memory, and emotional engagement.

This keynote introduces participants to the essentials of neuro-inclusive communication, showing how small, practical adjustments can make a big difference. Through quick, low-effort changes in language, design, and delivery, professionals can ensure their jokes, memes, instructions, calls-to-action, images, and videos reach and resonate with everyone.

By embracing these principles, organizations not only improve accessibility but also unlock stronger engagement, innovation, and trust across diverse audiences.

How to make your online content accessible

Far too much of today’s internet remains inaccessible. Over half of major brands’ homepages fail accessibility standards, and a recent study found that only 0.1% of tweets on X included alt text. As a result, countless people, blind, d/Deaf, tired, distracted, or living with physical differences such as tremors or limb differences, are left unable to fully engage with online content.

Disability is far more common and varied than many realize, yet the solutions are surprisingly simple. This keynote equips audiences with practical, easy-to-apply techniques for building accessibility into digital communication. Participants will learn how to write effective alt text and image descriptions, format content for screen readers across web, email, and social platforms, and quickly test color contrast to improve readability.

By implementing these straightforward changes, organizations can dramatically expand their reach, ensure compliance, and create online experiences that work better for everyone.
