This initiative is designed to encourage individuals who are deaf, hard of hearing, blind, have low vision, or have other disabilities to join us as we prepare for RSAA25 - helping to ensure our online event is as accessible and inclusive as possible.
Given that some members of our organising committee are blind or have low vision, we will prioritise applicants who are deaf, hard of hearing, or have other types of disabilities, to help bring even greater diversity of experience to our accessibility work.

- Attend RSAA25 with a free ticket
- Share their insights by posting during #RSAA25 on Mastodon (if they wish)
- Create a short, open-access blog or report after the event
The successful fellow will receive an initial payment before the event and a final payment once the report is published.
