The RNIB’s Accessible Media Symposium (16 - 17 September 2025) brought together broadcasters, streamers, technology companies, creatives, researchers and people with lived experience to explore the future of accessible media. As storytelling, platforms and technologies evolve, so too must the ways we think about access. This two-day event is a chance to share ideas, highlight innovation, and shape what accessible media looks like in the years ahead.

RNIB Connect Radio’s Toby Davey caught up with Marie Campbell, Audio Description Excellence Lead at Red Bee Media about how audio description might be having to change in line with more streaming services and the impact of AI on AD from the Describers point of view.
