Robin Christopherson MBE, is the Head of Digital Inclusion at AbilityNet, and a global leader in accessibility and digital inclusion.

VIDEO TRANSCRIPT:
Hi, my name is Robin Christopherson. Now being blind, I have amazing technology that can help me, my computer, my smartphone, my smart watch, and also smart glasses, for example. These will speak everything that I need to hear to use my phone or my computer. So there's amazing technology. But for me, what I really want for Christmas is a day without frustration when I'm accessing apps and websites with that amazing technology, and that requires people to have followed the accessibility guidelines.
If you do things in a certain way, then people with a range of disabilities will be able to use those apps and websites so much more easily. Please guys, be part of the solution. Look at the accessibility guidelines, and if you make your apps and websites inclusive, then actually it will be easier for them to be used by every single person.
