Speaking
We bring enthusiasm, joy and optimism to data. Our founder, Charlotte Hadley, has spoken at the RSS Conference, EARL, Shiny in Production, the GSS Conference and meetups across the UK since 2012. If there's any chance to live code or build something with the room, we'll take it.

Each comes as a 20-minute talk, a 40-minute talk or a hands-on workshop, and we tailor the examples to the room.
1 in 6 people worldwide live with a significant disability (World Health Organization, 2022), and most default charts don't work for them. Automated tools can't fix that. A practical tour of what goes wrong, what the law now expects, and fixes you can make on Monday.
The European Accessibility Act and ADA Title II set accessibility rules for digital services, and your charts and dashboards are part of them. What the rules ask of your data communication, where teams get caught out, and how to plan your way to compliance.
[CHARLOTTE TO CONFIRM]
Data storytelling matters, but it's only one of the jobs a chart does. A tour of dataviz for all points in your data journey, from exploration and modelling to reporting and engagement, and why one chart can't do all of them.
