New add-in for @Office365 lets you add accessibility comments and place a reminder slide at the start of @powerpoint presentations. Accessibility is about culture change in so many organisations. This makes the signposting and visibility a bit easier. Link in thread /1

For people who are deaf/HoH and who lip read, as we move to face coverings by default in the UK, please share the option to transcribe speech to text instantly. I use @mstranslator - others work too. #COVID19 #accessibility Alt: video demo Translator

Fantastic work @Twitter @TwitterA11y
Adding descriptions to images is a great way to include everyone in your conversation. These descriptions, aka alt-text, enable folks who use screen readers to interpret images in Tweets. Starting today, you no longer need a setting to add alt text and it's available on 📱 & 💻.
