This weekend: RNIB accessibility Hackathon

[Kevin McDonagh]

Hi there, I just wanted to let everyone know that the Royal National
Institute for Blind people are having their first official hackathon
in London this weekend.
The event will be a rare opportunity for developers to get feedback
from visually impaired both technical people. Together we could learn
lots about the accessibility concerns of our existing products and
likely learn lots of things to consider for products we develop in
future. We'll have lots of people in attendance with experience and a
few talks to warm us up.

The event has been organised through the Android developer meetup but
this event is not limited by the technology. Please just come along if
you are interested in the subject matter.
