Global Accessibility Awareness Day Team BINGO

Thursday, 19 May is Global Accessibility Awareness Day.

How to team BINGO

  1. Do a grid item before the next Monday Morning Meeting.
  2. Post the grid number and what you did to #bingo on Slack.
  3. Duplicate posts and numbers are great!
  4. We’ll tally the results next week.
Five categories, twenty five accessibility challenges, choose yours! BINGO is achieved when we complete all the challenges in a single row, column, or corner to corner diagonal.
