Panel Discussion - Reimagining accessible design

Accessible and inclusive design is becoming a global imperative—not as a rule, but as a strategic, creative direction shaping brands, products, and experiences.

Chaired by Charlotte Barker (CEO at the Institute of Designers), this panel explores accessibility’s impact across various industries. Simon Dennehy applies research-led human movement in product design, Sarah Fleury leads the change in accessible brand communications for Baileys at Diageo,  Caroline Kelleher (WP Engine) examines its role in web design, and Lynda Coyne (IHREC) shares the impact this new approach to design & communication is creating real-world change. Together, they’ll discuss what the future holds for our industry as we navigate the opportunities and challenges of accessible & inclusive design.
