As you may know, FFConf has a unique design and logo every year. Chris Mahon has yet again created a fantastic design from Remy's (always) specific and weird brief, and now Remy is building the site ready for launch next month.

Reflecting on last week's Mental Health Awareness Week a cause which is central to our FFConf ethos: even the smallest actions can combat powerlessness and foster hope. But while individual steps matter, our collective impact when we come together on 13th November is where the real power lies.

With that in mind, we want to highlight Amy Hupe's funny and frank talk from 2024. Amy shares her personal journey from the corporate world to self-employment, navigating burnout, and losing her passion. She reclaims her meaning beyond output - through curiosity, play, connection, and her core perspective.

Today (21 May) is Global Accessibility Awareness Day, so it seemed appropriate to highlight useful accessibility resources.

Global Accessibility Awareness Day aims to increase awareness of digital access and inclusion for over a billion people with disabilities.

• Accessibility day resources — a short list of key tools for web accessibility testing, including NVDA, WAVE, and more.
• Stephanie Walters covers a large selection of colour accessibility tools for designers (and devs).
• Our friends at Tetalogical posted an introduction to creating accessible documents that also touches on how accessibility laws apply.

Maybe this is a good time to review your personal website and make a small accessibility improvement so that the web can be open for all.
