🎉 Introducing the Accessibility Bar at the Ministry of Justice UK! To create truly inclusive digital services, we must go beyond technical compliance and take the time to learn about the lived experiences of those who face barriers every day. 🎥 In this video, Sarah Brooks, Deputy Director of Digital Capability & Engagement, and Samantha Merrett, Senior Accessibility Specialist, talk about the inspiration behind the Justice Digital Accessibility Bar and its role in transforming how we think about accessibility in digital services. 💡 It provides a hands-on, safe space where staff can explore assistive technologies such as screen readers, magnifiers, and speech recognition tools.   More importantly, it’s an opportunity for teams to gain a deeper understanding of the people they are designing services for. #Accessibility #InclusiveDesign #AssistiveTechnology #DigitalJustice #GovernmentDigitalAndData 

🎉 Spotlight on Sophie Hamill, User Researcher at HM Revenue & Customs 🎉 Sophie’s journey in the Government Digital and Data profession is a testament to the power of adaptability, collaboration, and continuous learning. Here are some highlights from her story: 💡 On finding her path: "My interest in research began during my Psychology degree, where I loved diving into understanding human behaviour. When I came across the role of a User Researcher within digital and data, it was completely new to me, but I immediately saw how it combined my passion for research with the opportunity to apply my behavioural science background." 🌟 What she loves about her work: "One of the most fulfilling aspects of my role is seeing the research I’ve conducted lead to meaningful change that improves services." 🤝 Why collaboration matters: "You can’t achieve the level of change desired by working in silos. Sharing challenges, ideas, and best practices is key to improving services and driving meaningful change." 🌱 Advice for others: "Things don’t always go to plan, so you’ve got to be ready to change direction and take challenges—or even failures—as chances to grow." Thank you, Sophie, for sharing your journey and for inspiring us to innovate, collaborate, and make an impact! 🚀 #GovernmentDigitalAndData
