For the very first time, we decided to use the Google Meet platform as it makes it easier to follow what’s being said in a meeting by turning on captions, which show the text of the conversation. This means, that those community members who have hearing difficulties, can follow what’s being said as we are talking.
It is recommended to use Google Meet App or to join online using Chrome or Safari browser.
