Accessibility affects many people, and in ways that aren't always obvious. Over 60% of the world's population wear glasses – that's an accessibility issue. Want more numbers? Roughly 50% of people break a bone before the age of 65 - that's an accessibility issue too.

Now imagine holding a baby or a bag full of groceries and trying to use your phone one handed. Not very easy, right?

Environment and situations from our everyday life affect our abilities, like the bright sun that makes it hard to see, loud noises make it difficult to hear, bumpy roads reduce our motor abilities, sleepiness lowers our focus, alcohol affects our cognitive abilities and the list goes on...

Remember that nobody can count themselves as always fully able and the older we get, the more accessibility needs we will have.
