Lizzie Eastham and Sam Rickard present Studio 1 - Vision Australia Radio’s weekly look through a different lens. 

On this week’s show 

“Sunshine (Accessible Weather App)” 

Lizzie catches up with Matt Kelsh, an App Designer who champions accessibility for users with a disability.  We look at the development of “Sunshine” a weather app with accessibility given a high priority and talk about the need for accessibility as a baseline instead of an afterthought.  

Sam and Lizzie also exchange stories about the holidays they have just been on. 

Studio 1 welcomes any input from our listeners. If you have any experience or thoughts about issues covered in this episode or believe there is something we should be talking about.
