I’m Zac Shaw, a visually impaired sprinter from Grimsby, now based in London. I’m a Paralympic medallist, Commonwealth champion and accessibility professional. I speak about the everyday things that could work better for disabled people, drawing on my own experience and my work in digital accessibility.

I’m Zac Shaw. I’m from Grimsby and now live in London. I’m a visually impaired sprinter, accessibility professional and keynote speaker.

At the Paris 2024 Paralympics I won bronze in the T12 100m and silver in the Universal Relay. I recently became Commonwealth champion in Glasgow, and I’m now into my preparations for the LA 2028 Paralympic Games.

Alongside sport, I work in digital accessibility and hold CPACC certification through the IAAP. I’m the accessibility lead for CACI Ltd.

My talks bring together lived experience and my expertise. I use real-world examples to bring things to life. I describe it as adding colour to a black and white picture.

I also do a lot of charitable work, as an ambassador for several charities and a member of several voluntary panels.
