What does the fox image say? As screen reader users, we don’t know because alt text hasn’t been added to this image. If you’re sharing pictures like this, you should describe the image like we’ve done here. 👇

This alt text gets our seal of approval! Thanks for describing the image - it really does help blind and partially sighted people enjoy the moment too.😍

If anyone wants to check with us if their alt text describes their cat pictures well, we're all in. 😻

*bows down* You forgot to add alt text to your gif though! It's easy to do: upload your photo> add your description, including any text on the gif or image> click done!

In our new research, only 44 per cent of blind and partially sighted people said that they’re reliably met by staff at their destination or connecting station.
