Accessibility Services

Contact us

With so many accessibility standards to meet, ensuring your organisation’s digital channels are compliant can be complicated. We understand your struggles and can help you navigate problem areas to create measurable impact.

We analyse, develop and educate in all things accessibility by providing support, auditing and an affordable consultancy service.

Fixing accessibility issues early in a project is considerably cheaper than fixing them after launch. Our range of services are tailored to meet your requirements by taking the hard work away and allowing you to reach everyone digitally, while creating a measurable impact.

Accessibility audits

Our accessibility experts run a series of automated and manual checks to test your website, digital services and mobile apps for accessibility, usability and compliance issues. 

All tests are measured against Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG). We test using assistive technologies to show how well your services perform with screen readers and magnification software. 

Following the audit, we will provide you with an in-depth report with actionable prioritised recommendations. Our full-cycle accessibility audit allows you to find out exactly what is affecting your accessibility score.

Accessibility consultancy

We work with you on an hourly or day rate consultancy service to discover your organisation’s accessibility capabilities at every level. 

Whether you are looking for some straightforward answers, an in-depth accessibility strategy and plan or some in depth user testing, we consult in an honest and constructive way to provide you with the solutions you need.

Example projects / phases:

Research

An identification process into how people with accessibility needs use your services or products and the problems they could experience.

Investigation

Deep dive sessions alongside your team, where we look into your website to ensure it meets the highest standards possible.

Recommendations

The arranging of training sessions and assisting with finding you appropriate suppliers throughout your accessibility journey.

Whatever your need, no matter how big or small, our experts can work with you to find the best solution in allowing you to become fully compliant.

Accessibility workshops

Accessibility is not one person’s job, everyone is responsible. Our accessibility workshops engage your employees so that accessibility becomes a part of your internal culture. We help you to understand the benefits of creating accessible services by providing you with factual and technical insight.
