Why your accessibility checklist isn't working

Accessibility has become one of the most important conversations in our sector over the past few years.

But are we still thinking about it in the wrong way? And are we considering the expectations of different generations? 

In this episode of The Meeting Room, Paul Harvey is joined by Freya Foster, of Principal Global Events, who believes accessibility shouldn't be an add-on or a compliance exercise, but designed into every event from the very beginning. She also says that the younger generation sees accessibility not as a "nice to have", but as a baseline expectation.

Join them as they explore why accessibility is about far more than ramps and quiet rooms, what event planners can learn from Gen Z, and why designing for inclusion ultimately creates better events for everyone.
