Event Details

This session will be a practical look at Accessibility in action.

Clare Davidson from SimpleUsability will be joined by Barry Hill, who has been using Jaws for the past 15 years. This session will give you the opportunity to see how Barry navigates his way through websites using Jaws assistive technology. We will then discuss how accessible these websites are and what changes should be made to improve the user experience.

This is a great opportunity to see Jaws in action and learn more about how to make websites more accessible.

Clare Davidson is a User Experience Consultant, working at SimpleUsability. Previous roles have included working at Lloyds Banking Group and Aviva.

Northern User Experience



Northern User Experience is an informal community for people interested in usability, HCI, information design and all aspects of the user experience. Our membership is as diverse as the field itself, with developers, academics, usability specialists, accessibility experts and technical authors all represented. Whatever your interest in usability, we hope you will find something useful here.

We meet regularly to learn, debate and socialise. There may be a presentation, followed by a discussion and a visit to the pub, but the group drives the agenda, and we have plans to include more practical sessions, such as a UI problem-solving workshop.

Manchester events are usually on the first Monday of the month, Leeds events on the fourth Monday of the month.

Events are free and open to all. We are unfunded, and rely on the goodwill and energy of our members to contribute and make the events work. If you have something interesting to share with the group, and are willing to put together a short presentation, please get in touch.
