Agenda

  • 10.10 am – The Accessibility Game
    Guest Speaker: Julie Woods, ‘That Blind Woman’
    Julie Woods went blind in 1997, she thought her life had ended, little did she realise it had only just begun. Julie created the ‘Why not?’ game back in 2017, she has adapted this into the ‘Accessibility Game’. The game includes 20 disability-related questions for players to find a scenario to say ‘why not’ to. Julie believes that people are often scared of disability and doing the wrong thing and she aims to make them more comfortable with the world of disability by playing the ‘Accessibility Game’.
