# Event Details - **Event Name**: Communicating physics and astronomy to a visually impaired audience - **Event Start and End Date**: Wed, 10 Dec, 2025 at 10:00 am – Wed, 10 Dec, 2025 at 04:00 pm - **Event Description**: Join us for a day discussing how to make physics and astronomy more accessible to visually impaired communities.About this EventPhysics and astronomy can be extremely difficult to access for people with visual impairments (VI). A reliance on images, diagrams, graphs, and other visual representations of data means that people with VI can easily feel excluded from these subjects. However, there are several initiatives and projects in the UK that are working to make topics within physics and astronomy more accessible for this audience. The 3rd in a series of meetings held before the pandemic, this meeting will showcase these projects and their resources, allowing participants to share best practice, and explore future collaborations and other opportunities.The morning of the meeting will be devoted to short presentations by different projects. The afternoon will have a more open format, with the programme being set by the attendees in an 'unconference' style. The meeting is open to anyone who is interested working with members of the VI community in an outreach/public engagement/teaching environment, and we expect the audience to be a mix of physics researchers and academics, outreach and public engagement professionals, teachers, and informal educators.If you would like to give a talk, please send a short abstract to the meeting organisers Jen Gupta (jen.gupta@port.ac.uk) and Nic Bonne (nicolas.bonne@port.ac.uk) no later than 5 PM on Monday November 24th. We will do our best to accommodate as many talk requests as possible. If you would like to showcase any resources or project assets in the second half of the day, please let the organisers know and we will work out how to best accommodate you.Registration for the meeting is free, but please note that lunch will not be provided (there are plenty of places to buy lunch in walking distance of Burlington House where the RAS is situated). Please contact the organisers if you have any specific accessibility requirements for hte meeting.Overview of schedule:10.00 - 10.30 Arrival and registration10.30 - 11.30 Invited Talks11.30 - 11.45 Break11.45 - 13.00 Invited Talks13.00 - 13.45 Lunch Break13.45 - 15.45 Unconference15.45 - 16.00 Wrap-up and depart - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/communicating-physics-and-astronomy-to-a-visually-impaired-audience/100001962513329197 - **Event Categories**: meetups - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fcommunicating-physics-and-astronomy-to-a-visually-impaired-audience-tickets-1962513329197 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: The Royal Astronomical Society - **lat**: 51.5085836 - **long**: -0.13938120000000254 - **full address**: The Royal Astronomical Society, Piccadilly, London, United Kingdom ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: Royal Astronomical Society (https://allevents.in/org/royal-astronomical-society/22518426) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/de800d976b3f35bb206467c5b0b1b5fd0c03754542148eccbc8c967847ada195-rimg-w940-h470-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1763338957 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/cf5e5aa0e1bc15245f06eaf838f6f5017e5dc3c724b44b073e398b9d1ee7f939-rimg-w400-h400-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1763339234 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening? - **A:** Wed, 10 Dec, 2025 at 10:00 am - **Q**: Where is the event happening? - **A:** The Royal Astronomical Society, Piccadilly, London, United Kingdom - **Q**: What is the ticket price? - **A:** starting from 0 up to 0 GBP - **Q**: Who is organizing the event? - **A:** Royal Astronomical Society - **Q**: What type of event is this? - **A:** meetups - **Q**: Where can I find ticket details about Communicating physics and astronomy to a visually impaired audience ? - **A:** You can find ticket details about this event on AllEvents. ## Structured Data (JSON-LD) ```json [ { "@context": "https://schema.org", "@type": "Event", "name": "Communicating physics and astronomy to a visually impaired audience", "image": "https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/de800d976b3f35bb206467c5b0b1b5fd0c03754542148eccbc8c967847ada195-rimg-w940-h470-dcffffff-gmir.jpg?v=1763338957", "startDate": "2025-12-10", "endDate": "2025-12-10", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/communicating-physics-and-astronomy-to-a-visually-impaired-audience/100001962513329197", "location": { "@type": "Place", "name": "The Royal Astronomical Society", "address": { "@type": "PostalAddress", "streetAddress": "Piccadilly", "postalCode": "W1J 0BQ", "addressLocality": "London", "addressRegion": "EN", "addressCountry": "GB" }, "geo": { "@type": "GeoCoordinates", "latitude": "51.5085836", "longitude": "-0.13938120000000254" } }, "eventAttendanceMode": "https://schema.org/OfflineEventAttendanceMode", "description": "Join us for a day discussing how to make physics and astronomy more accessible to visually impaired communities.", "offers": [ { "@type": "AggregateOffer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-04", "availabilityEnds": "2025-12-10", "validFrom": "2026-04-04", "lowPrice": "0.00", "highPrice": "0.00", "price": "0.00", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/communicating-physics-and-astronomy-to-a-visually-impaired-audience/100001962513329197" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-04", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-04", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/communicating-physics-and-astronomy-to-a-visually-impaired-audience/100001962513329197", "price": 0, "name": "In-Person Ticket" }, { "@type": "Offer", "availability": "https://schema.org/InStock", "priceCurrency": "GBP", "availabilityStarts": "2026-04-04", "availabilityEnds": "", "validFrom": "2026-04-04", "url": "https://allevents.in/london/communicating-physics-and-astronomy-to-a-visually-impaired-audience/100001962513329197", "price": 0, "name": "Online Ticket" } ], "organizer": [ { "@type": "Organization", "name": "Royal Astronomical Society", "url": "https://allevents.in/org/royal-astronomical-society/22518426", "description": "The Royal Astronomical Society (RAS), founded in 1820, encourages and promotes the study of astronomy, solar-system science, geophysics and closely related branches of science." } ] } ] ```
